The Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji and traditional worshippers in Nigeria have urged the Federal Government and the southwest governors to urgently adopt irrigation farming to overcome projections of food shortage in the year 2021.
Farmers association from the Oke-Ogun region of Oyo State have recently announced that there would be a scarcity of maize in 2021, because of what they called a failed weather forecast which they said made them cultivate maize and lost their investment to drought.
Oba Adetunji advised that for Nigeria to avert food shortage in 2021, effort should be directed towards mass irrigation farming to avoid the effects of bad weather on planting, while farmers should also be protected from criminals that attacked and destroy their farms.
