The Rural Agricultural Infrastructure Development (RAID) project is taking root in Ithaca, West Berbice.
The Department of Public Information (DPI) yesterday reported that Finance Minister, Winston Jordan and Agriculture Minister, Noel Holder spearheaded a visit to farmlands in Ithaca where infrastructure works are being done.
Since 2018, 150 acres of fertile lands in the Ithaca area, have seen infrastructural improvements to facilitate the farmers of the Ithaca Co-operative society. DPI said that this initiative followed the identification of farming areas in Mocha, Buxton, Triumph and Ithaca, for assistance from the RAID project.
