𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐒𝐀- 𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐈𝐓 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 This presentation was carried out on the MAP's programme by Future Forward Farmers Hub 🧩Agriculture has been in place for a long time in Nigeria and can be dated back to pre-colonial time. 🧩We usually back then engaged in subsistence agriculture to feed the immediate family. With emphasis on crude implements like hoes and cutlass and the use of family for labour. 🧩The size of the family then determined the quality of farm work carried out, and most men married more than one wives and had numerous children to meet these needs. 🧩To expand into commercial farming properly in order to meet financial obligations and supplies to the growing populace, a change was needed, but a change that could be sustainable was better implemented in response to the climbing climate crisis.
