The National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA) says it plans to empower 77,400 young farmers to engage in agricultural business. NALDA said the agricultural businesses would range from crop farming to animal husbandry across the country. Its Executive Secretary, Mr Paul Ikonne, said this at a news conference in Abuja on Monday.
