Nigerian farmers have been advised not to be deceived by the early rainfall in the Savannah region to rush into agricultural activities.
The national coordinator of Zero Hunger Farmers Association, Tunde Arosanyin, gave the advice on Wednesday in an interview with PREMIUM TIMES.
The News Agency of Nigeria also reported that the residents had expected the rain last week when they experienced partly cloudy weather. The Cross River State capital witnessed its first rain of 2019 which fell steadily for almost two hours. “I advise farmers not to run to their farms because there is no sufficient moisture content in the soil that can support plant growth,” he said.
The agency also said the south-eastern zone and the coastal areas would experience the normal onset of rains.
