Robert Fagans, Deputy Minister for Planning and Development at the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) has lauded the United Nations’ World Food Program (WFP) in Liberia for their continuous support toward the country’s agricultural sector. “We are not surprised by this gesture from WFP because of its numerous assistance in building the capacity of the sector in the past. This assistance is very timely, especially when the Government is contemplating on moving agriculture forward,” he said. He said the MOA will ensure that the equipment be used to strengthen the capacity of smallholder farmers. Others are six 5KVA generators, six desktop computers as well as 30 water discharge hoses and 15 floater wheel tires.
