Food Care
Food is man's most important need. Millions of Nigerians go about hungry in the midst of abundant natural resources and national income. Although Nigeria is reckoned to be one of the top richest countries in the world in terms of natural endowment, ironically, ordinary Nigerians are one of the poorest groups of people in the world. Starvation is now prevalent throughout the length and breath of this country. The NCP government will put an end to starvation.
Massive investments will be injected into food production. Farmers' cooperatives will be encouraged. Agricultural subsidies in terms of seeds, tools, equipment, machinery, grants and soft loans will be provided. The NCP will ensure that subsidies provided reach the farmers' cooperatives and individual peasant farmers and are controlled by them. Farming will never again be at the mercy of rainfall. Irrigation will be made widespread.
Cheap or affordable food will be made available for our people. Producing to meet the food need of the people internally rather than producing for export shall be the primary focus of our agricultural policy.
