Kwara State chapter of PAN, which is canvassing for proper recognition of the body, commended the state government for developing a data base so as to have a direct dealing with genuine farmers.

The group noted that if given the necessary government support, Nigeria could be moving towards enhancing national food security.

The association appealed to the government to include PAN in the school feeding programme to ensure its success.

It said children need eggs for their development, describing eggs as the world’s wonder food.

Members were urged to regularly follow up on government programmes and initiatives that were relevant to them and those affecting their business.
