The Programme, according to Kotangora, would cover the 25 local government areas of the state and is targeted at the poor within the agriculture value chain, the physically challenged persons, the poor and vulnerable with minimal size of farm enterprise and those who have been affected by other crises apart from the pandemic.
“Those who will benefit should be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic or other crisis and their means of livelihood destroyed or disrupted with no means of daily sustenance or feeding.
“Women and youths are highly targeted as they fall into the category of the poor and vulnerable in the society because of lack of or limited access to finance and other resources,” he said.
