Enugu State Trains Farmers to Enhance Food Security
The Enugu State Ministry of Agriculture, under the leadership of Dr. Patrick Nwabueze Uburu, has launched a statewide capacity-building program aimed at enhancing food security for farmers. This initiative is designed to equip farmers with knowledge about climate change and weather patterns, enabling them to improve agricultural productivity across rural communities.
The training program, which spans three days, includes a workshop focused on downscaling the 2026 season climate predictions. It is organized in collaboration with the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET).
Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah's commitment to agricultural transformation is reflected in this program, which aims to provide farmers with the necessary knowledge to apply directly to their farming practices. A similar exercise conducted in 2025 yielded positive results, allowing farmers to monitor weather patterns effectively and understand optimal planting times.
