Agriculture Minister Floyd Green says the limited number of extension officers has impacted relief delivery to farmers after Hurricane Beryl
Agriculture Minister Floyd Green says the delivery of relief supplies to farmers following Hurricane Beryl has been slow, due to the limited number of extension officers.
The statement is in response to claims that impacted farmers in several parishes are yet to receive the promised aid.
The concern was echoed by Member of Parliament for North West Manchester Mikael Phillips, in the Lower House yesterday.
In acknowledging the issue, the Agriculture Minister said technology is being used to augment the reach of extension officers.
Mr. Green assured that all impacted farmers will receive assistance.
