Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani flags off the third consecutive year of a free input programme for smallholder farmers. The launch, held in Kaduna, rolls out 500 trucks of free fertiliser and tractors to 150,000 smallholder farmers across the state’s 23 local government areas. Reporting from different outlets describes the event as an extension of similar initiatives carried out by the administration in the preceding two years. One outlet notes that the governor’s administration previously distributed free fertiliser last August, providing 400 trucks to 100,000 smallholder farmers. The latest distribution maintains the focus on agricultural support, with the inclusion of tractors alongside fertiliser. The programmes are presented as part of an ongoing effort by the Kaduna State government to assist small farmers through subsidised or free farming inputs, using state-level distribution across all local governments.
