Excerpt:
The expert said that urban farming would also attract young people to farming activities, which would in turn enhance learning and innovation in modern agricultural practices.
He said that crops majorly planted in urban farming are leafy vegetables which include soko, tete, ewedu, spring onion and lettuce.
Mr Olayeni said that fruit vegetables like tomatoes, pepper, carrot, onion, okro, pepper, cabbage, and crops like yam could also be planted in urban farming.
He said that communities, which engaged in urban farming could form cooperatives and register with relevant government agencies and ministries to attract recognition and other benefits.
Mr Olayeni encouraged residents to approach any agricultural training centres in Lagos state like the Farm Service Centre, Oko Oba, Agege; Agric. Training Institute, Araga, Epe; and Agric. Training Institute, Avia, Badagry for more enlightenment.
Also speaking, the convener of the programme, Adele Sanni, urged Muslims to organise themselves and purchase foodstuff in bulk to ease food hardship in the council.
