The farmers stated during projects inspection by the CARES-project officials and the media to some local governments.

The local governments visited to assess achievements were Rano, Madobi, Bunkure, Gezawa, Minjibir and Kura, on Monday.

Halilu explained that 980 poor farmers across the state have so far benefited from the inputs assistance.

Jamila Garba, one of the beneficiaries in Rano local government, thanked Kano-CARES for supporting them with inputs.

“They made farming easy and possible for us this time around, because, if not because of this intervention, many of us will not plant crops due high cost of fertilizers,” she said.

Yunusa Usman, another beneficiary in Kura local government, commended the project and the state government for choosing them among beneficiaries of the supports.

Usman said that would go along way in encouraging them to increase agricultural productivity in the state.

On his part, Malam Abdullahi Umar, a beneficiary in Madobi local government, thanked Kano-CARES for giving them improved seeds and other inputs to enhance agricultural productivity.

Umar said that such kind of support was timely as farmers face challenge of high cost of fertilizers and other farm inputs.

He urged Kano-CARES project to widen the scope of the programme with a view to enable more farmers benefit from the gesture.

The beneficiaries from other local governments also thanked the project for the intervention, which they said, has started yielding positive results of improve productivity.

“As a result of the intervention, we are now predicting bumper harvest. We really thank the CARES-project for the support,” he said.

Similarly, Mai-Unguwa Yahuza, Village Head of Jigore in Minjibir local government, thanked the project for rural roads rehabilitation, which he said, has assisted immensely in linking up many communities.

Yahuza further said that made transportation of people, goods and farm produce from one place to another easy.
