    • We are yet to define the scope of small scale farmers, businesses and Aquaculture. This problem has over taken all efforts made to streamline support and informations made to promote Small Scale businesses. We at Nigerian Women Agro Allied Farmers thinks that Small scale farming are meant for women and youths and these groups support feeding of families and the poor. But in financial support disbursement, we see the middle class benefiting and out smarting the poor. How can we really redefine and support food growing and poverty eradication through a better alignment and support system.

    • Dear Partners,

      The document was well articulated and it contains the opinion of the masses.

      My contributions are on how we can implement it to the later, Mobilization of stakeholders and inclusive participation will be the key to success.

      As a farmer Organization, Implementation of this document will be beneficial to us especially in the production and utilization of our quality farm produce to produce Complementary feeding locally.

      We the farmers association should be recognized and supported to produce home grown foods and fortification for our nursing mothers and under five year old born..

      By so doing, we will grow our economy and enrich the health of our babies and citizenry.
