“In developed countries, sectors such as agriculture, tourism, and health care have become largely dependent on migrants, significantly contributing to local economic development that benefits both host communities and refugees.”<\/p>\n
“Many refugees come from rural areas where they have valuable agricultural skills as crop growers, livestock keepers, or fishermen.”<\/p>\n
“With the right support and assets, they have the potential not only to feed themselves and their families, but also to enter and prosper in lucrative markets,” he said.<\/p>\n
According to him, greenhouse mechanised farming has the potential to transform rural Nigeria’s agricultural sector by achieving food security, increasing incomes, and creating new job opportunities.<\/p>\n
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), a greenhouse or screenhouse is a structure with walls and a roof made of transparent but durable materials, such as glass or plastic, where plants that require regulated climatic conditions are grown.<\/p>\n
A screenhouse is what we found in Nigeria and other African countries; it is appropriate for temperate regions where the weather is favorable for plant growth.<\/p>\n
Durodoye noted that it was called a screenhouse because the weather issue had been resolved, “leaving us with dust, insects, pests, and unwanted humans and animals from entering the kit.”<\/p>\n
“Inside the Greenhouse, we have gadgets\/equipment such as heaters, coolant, fans, and so on to regulate the temperature into the standard required for your plants; this type of Greenhouse is found in Europe, Asia, and America, among other places.”<\/p>\n
“It comes in a variety of sizes, including 5m x 5m, 5m x 10m, 24m x 24m, and 24m x 48m, depending on your strength.” Non-availability of land is not an excuse for a Screenhouse of 24m x 48m if you are certain of 600 stands of plants you want to go into. You can do this in your backyard or on your balcony.<\/p>\n
“One thing they have in common is that they both have the same structure,” he said. “With a small land area and management of limited resources, one can harvest huge production, alleviate hunger, and be a good source of family income.”<\/p>\n
Tomatoes, harbanero pepper, golden sun, green pepper, cucumber, vegetables, and yam are among the food crops that thrive in a greenhouse farm, according to NAN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
