Government provided grants to 59 new sugarcane farmers in Seaqaqa who are entering the industry.
Minister for Multi-Ethnic Affairs and Sugar Industry Charan said government remains committed to the sugar industry.
“This initiative underscores our Government’s dedication to ensuring that land tenure is not a barrier to agricultural progress,” he said.
“This initiative is not just about supporting new farmers but also about securing land tenure for existing farmers, allowing them to expand their operations and contribute to the long-term sustainability of the sugar industry.”
“The future of our sugar industry depends on our ability to adapt, innovate, and create sustainable solutions for our farmers.”
“The distribution of these grants today is a testament to our government’s unwavering commitment to ensuring that farmers have the necessary resources to thrive.”
