SDGs and Agricultural Mechanization Practice in Nigeria

摘要

The Nigerian Government in collaboration with all relevant stakeholders in Nigeria have put in place several programmes that can help Nigeria meet the 169 set targets of the SDGs. With the recent support received by the Nigerian Government by the office of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) on the execution of the 2030 UN Agenda, Nigeria is fully determined to meet up with the 169 set targets of the 17 Goals of the SDGs by 2030. As agriculture plays a great role to the human race, there is no nation in the world that can survive without food, therefore, all matters concerning improving the level of agricultural mechanization practice in its present form in Nigeria should be addressed by the Nigerian Government. NCAM which is the only federal government parastatal in Nigeria with the specific mandate of promoting agricultural mechanization practice in Nigeria should be strengthened the more by the Federal Government of Nigeria in addressing all the challenges facing agricultural mechanization practice in Nigeria.
