A key all-weather road and bridge at Onverwagt, in the Abary area, that were sore points for farmers, are being repaired, following meetings with concerned residents and the Ministry of Agriculture.
According to the Ministry, during discussions with farmers at a meeting held on June 9, several concerns were raised, including repairs to the road and bridge.
Repairs are ongoing now, the Ministry said yesterday.
“Farmers have also benefitted from works being undertaken by an excavator to empolder homesteads in Abary Creek due to the vulnerability of the area to flooding.
In addition, resulting from the interaction with Minister Persaud, a meeting was arranged with cattle farmers and the Ministry of Home Affairs to discuss cattle rustling and other security concerns which are affecting farmers.”
The Ministry disclosed that it has made several follow up visits to Abary and other surrounding communities to address farmers’ concerns.
