Just a few days ago, the Ministry of Agriculture announced the distribution of material to the crop farmers that were required. Such commencement now has turned to a step ahead towards its accomplishment. As the distribution aimed at boosting crop production, the results are saying it all.

The 25 by 25 agenda itself was announced with the prime objective of food security which is grounded on reducing the food import bill by 25% by the year 2025. This would contribute a valuable part towards the boost in the economy which directly aligns with the overall growth and development. 

The agriculture sector has a significant role in the economic growth after the tourism sector. The income generated through agriculture contributes a remarkable amount that can benefit the country in achieving its sustainable goals.

Considerably, the reduced imports being targeted under the 25 by 25 agenda is a great idea as it holds all the benefits to the local population of the country. Such an act would not only enhance food security and crop production but would also offer reduced cost to the food items to the people of St Kitts and Nevis.
