According to the Head of State, the programme will directly benefit over 3,600 dairy farmers, enabling them to collectively collect around 37,000 litres of milk daily.
The initiative falls under the government’s broader agricultural transformation agenda aimed at increasing productivity and boosting income levels among farming communities across the country.
