FG’ll Deploy Drones to Maximise Agricultural Output: Kyari

Sen. Abubakar Kyari, Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, on Tuesday, said the Federal Government will deploy technology for all-year round farming.

The minister said this while briefing State House correspondents.

“The faster we clear land, harvest, chemical deployment, whether it’s pesticide, whether it’s herbicide, the better.

“We intend to use drone technology in doing that because what one drone can do, a hundred people cannot do in a day.

“So, we are going to use drones to fast-track agricultural activities, harvest quickly, and then make the land available for the next cycle of cultivation,” said Kyari.

He said his ministry would partner the private sector to support vibrant youths to take advantage of its mechanisation programme.
