Segun Adewumi (The President, Nigeria Cassava Growers Association)My take on the proposal to revive farm settlements is that government needs to be focused. This is because these farm settlements are supposed to have educational and medical facilities as well as open markets for buying and selling. •Sylvanus Oboh (Professor of Animal Science, Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma)It is strategic for the federal, state and local governments to revive farm settlements. Farm settlements will enhance productivity of farm produce, provide enough security for the farm and increase the farmer’s profitability. Moreover, it will encourage more investors to venture into the sectorThe above reasons make it expedient for one to opine that the government at all levels should revive farm settlements.
