“We will use this technology to grow mushrooms for food to feed the cattles. We feed the people and then the animals. This will help curb between herders and farmers.

“We are ready from the Chinese side to bring the farmers to the demonstration centre to train them on technology.”

Speaking on the importance of China-aid Nigeria Agricultural Demonstration Centre project, the envoy said, “Food is security that everyone needs. Without Agriculture, the whole country cannot be stable. Every year in Chinese document in the front page, it is about farmers, and agriculture.

“I hope that this project is a starting point that the two nations can work together to bring more investment from international communities. We could solve food insecurity issues.”
