Fertilizers boost agriculture sector

The distribution of fertilisers to farmers has played a major role in boosting the country’s agricultural sector and the economy at large, the Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Agnes Kalibata, told parliament yesterday. Appearing before parliament to answer questions pertaining to issues raised in the report by the parliamentary Commission on agriculture, Livestock development and Environment, Kalibata said that, compared to previous years, most farmers had now adhered to the government’s call to use fertilisers to improve on their yields.
