We Need To Grow Our Food by Gajagojo: 2:21pm On Feb 20
The Netherlands is smaller in Size than Niger state but is one of the top ten exporters of food
Can we learn from them?

I think Nigeria should diversify to potato production away from rice

In 2021 Potatoes, prepared, frozen were the world's 459th most traded product (out of 4,641). In 2021, the top exporters of Potatoes, prepared, frozen were Belgium ($2.13B), Netherlands ($1.77B), Canada ($1.3B), United States ($1.19B), and France ($382M).

I believe yam tpo can be frozen.

The issue in the long term must be growing what we eat and stop relying on food import

Even if the Naira crashes at least we should not starve with all the land We have which is ranked among the highest quality in the world

Were we growing enough food before that started?
Nigeria at some point was ranked number one importer of rice
That was many years ago
Rice is killing us slowly
Rice that is not even part of our local diet in the South is now the number one staple
