The Buji Local Government Area in Jigawa State, led by Chairman Najeebullah Falalu Tukur, has announced a significant reduction in the price of fertiliser for local farmers. The price of a 50kg bag of fertiliser has been slashed from ₦28,800 to ₦18,800, reflecting an increased subsidy aimed at supporting agricultural productivity in the region. This initiative is part of the local government's broader efforts to enhance the livelihoods of farmers and boost food production. The subsidy is expected to alleviate financial burdens on farmers, encouraging them to invest more in their crops. This move has been welcomed by the farming community, who have faced rising costs in recent years. The local government hopes that this price reduction will lead to increased agricultural output and food security in the area.
