. Says Fashola Farm is a wonder to behold. Speaks on mass mobilization for social justice and economic recovery
The hub is built on 1,250 hectares of land, and every aspect of the land is being occupied. We are at the industrial site now, and we have 10 industries that are built here. Of those 10 industries, eight of them are completely occupied, meaning that there are companies already doing business here. We have green houses here as you can see over there and each of the buildings there is on two hectares of land.
When we look at what we produce in Nigeria, the yield is always very low. Agriculture has gone beyond cutlasses and hoes. It is about innovation. And it is very difficult to engage some people who are steeped in their ways. It is difficult to innovate with them. What we are doing in OMITUNTUN 2.0 is to increase productivity and optimisation. The materials we have at Gate 1 now will give 20 tonnes per hectare where you were getting 10 tonnes. And we are doing the same optimisation for maize and soya beans. And by the time we harvest, working with the outgrowers, they will cut it and plant and that will give you another generation of planting materials that will give over 20 tonnes per hectare and our plan is to take that to all the regions of the state.
