Katsina Govt Flags Off 2020 Seedlings Distribution To Check Desertification
The 2020 seedlings distribution has been flagged off in Katsina State with stakeholders optimistic that in a few years to come, desertification and other environmental-related disasters would have reduced drastically.
In an effort to reclaim the degraded land in Katsina state, the European Union had over the last five years been working with the Federal Government, the Katsina state government and the residents via the Fuel Wood Balance project, FUWOBA. Introduced in September 2014, the project was able to plant about eight million trees and reclaimed 147 hectres of land.
