During the meeting, held in the Vice-Chancellor’s Office, both parties explored further opportunities for collaboration, aiming to enhance their joint efforts.

Currently, AUXANO Farms has cleared and surveyed a significant part of the 500 hectares of land within FUNAAB to establish a Farm Estate.

The initiative was set to feature a diverse range of farm produce, which would not only create employment opportunities but also significantly contribute to national food security.
