The government is continuing with its investment strategy to spur growth in the agro-processing sector and is investing some $25 million in Region Six in this regard.
The $25 million is being invested to construct, complete, retrofit, and equip, an agro-processing plant in the Indigenous village of Orealla located in Region Six, to produce cassava-based and other processed products, a Department of Public Information (DPI) release stated yesterday.
Senior Minister in the Office of the President with Responsibility for Finance, Dr Ashni Singh who recently visited the village to witness a solar home systems distribution, informed villagers that the facility is expected to be operational before the end of the year.
