A state-of-the-art mega-farm in the intermediate Savannahs in Region 10 is expected to begin early next year as a Brazilian investment group has signalled their intentions to start a huge three-phase project.
According to a press release from the Ministry of Agriculture, Guyana is set to become the bread basket of the Caribbean again as the Mano Julio Group from Brazil has presented their blue print for the establishment of the mega farm.
The outline of the project was presented to the representatives of the Government including Minister of Finance, Winston Jordan; Minister of Agriculture, Noel Holder; and Business Minister Dominic Gaskin at the Ministry of Agriculture’s boardroom yesterday morning.
The statement said that two video presentations were made, in which the Brazilian team showcased the transformation of the savannahs through the establishment of the mega farm concept.
