Governor Abdullahi A. Sule of Nasarawa State, has flagged off distribution of the Federal Government fertiliser to farmers in the state.

The occasion which took place in Lafia, the state capital, on Monday June 29, 2026, witnessed the distribution of 20,160 of bags of fertiliser to farmers in the state under the Federal Government Farm Input Support Programme (FISP).

The event was organised by the Nasarawa State Ministry of Agriculture, as part of phase one of the Renewed Hope Farm Input Programme for 2026 wet-season farming activities.

Speaking during the occasion, governor Sule clarified that the credit for the 20,160 bags of theĀ  fertiliser being distributed belongs to the President, working through the National Agricultural Development Fund (NADF) and the Federal Ministry of Agriculture.

The governor further said that the gesture would help to cushion the effect of the rising cost of fertiliser, which according to him, had made it difficult for farmers, as well as the state government itself, to break even after recent years.
