Over 5,000 farmers across 200,000 acres will benefit, following a billion-dollar education grant just days prior — signaling a massive economic boost. This isn’t just handouts; it’s a strategic push to build trust through consistent action, backed by investments in drainage, irrigation, tax relief, and infrastructure. Upgrades include modern drying and storage facilities, new farmland for young farmers, and drone tech to tackle labor shortages. Plus, they’re expanding export markets and boosting local rice use in value-added products — turning farming into a future-ready, profitable industry.
