FG Shortlists 21 States For Pilot Grazing Reserves (list) by Islie: 5:27am On Jun 18, 2021
To kick-start the National Livestock Transformation Plan (NLTP), the Federal Government has sanctioned the establishment of grazing reserves in the 19 northern states and two others in the South West ­– Oyo and Ogun.

While Ogun is yet to be gazetted for the scheme tailored at having at least a ranch in every state, the Acting Director, Animal Husbandry in the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Winnie Lai- Solarin, confirmed the development.

Also speaking yesterday in Abuja during the 44th regular meeting of the National Council on Agriculture and Rural Development (NCARD), the minister, Sambo Nanono, affirmed that 22 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) had registered with the NLTP’s office.

He said a Dutch consortium was partnering with the government to begin the pilot phase for the project in Nasarawa State, adding that the site will serve as a hub for knowledge and skill transfer to the pastoral communities and encourage them to adopt ranching as a mode of farming.

“We are all aware of the troubles that our nation is going through with respect to the farmers-herders clashes, which have often produced violent and expensive consequences. This administration is more committed than ever to resolve this problem on a more permanent solution,” the minister noted.

He said when fully implemented, the NLTP would bring an end to the incessant clashes and introduce the herders to the modern way of raising cattle, with all the added benefits of improved feeding, animal and human health, genetic improvement, value addition and better socio-economic standing for participants.

He stated that the scheme had been adjudged well-conceived globally, with the government resolving to create an enabling environment to attract more investments into the sub-sector.

However, to ensure effective monitoring of government interventions in the agriculture sector, the current administration has established an online portal to capture bio-data of 10 million farmers and link them with their plots, crops and volumes of production in the country.

He said the government initially intended to capture 2.4 million farmers but ended up extending the target to 10 million on the advice of the Economic Sustainability Plan Team.

The two southern States involved are hypocrites, this is a northern business, they should remain in the North.

We are begging them to bring the cattle to the east as per grazing route.I was amazed how UGM used some as target practice in a popular market in my lga.The men came down from thr car and the headers disappeared on seeing them. And they shot the 5 cattle dead.And it was free meat for all .We have plenty grazing route in South East .
We open our arms wide open to welcome una

cheesy

It's alright, the chief animal in the zoooo yard the chief-in-cattles himself wasn't expected to do something better or different rather than cattles he was called to served.
But, whatever dealings they have for grazing and cattle business should remain in the northern states.
If they come here I swear all the cattles will die of poison in one night

This is one of the reason why Buhari became president, by fire by force you will give out your ancestral land.

Happy one Nigeria.... Ogun and Oyo people welcome to regulization in disguise... igangan killing still fresh, and I hope Ogun people who ran to benin republic are back.

So if Southerners want to go into herding of cattle what happens to them? Hate can never substitute logics.

Some of these governors talk tough in public while being very submissive in private.
I bet they were even begging to be included.
What they don't know is that the billions they will share will come with conditions.

Why is it grazing reserve and grazing route always being discussed despite the challenge it poses.

Why not ranching?... I think the herdsmen are trying all that it takes to maintain the cost of production to a minimum only they can practice, thereby keeping the monopoly... the moment nomadic herding is banned, is the day all states would have industrial ranches and multiple private ranches capable of feeding their states with the advantage of greener pastures.
