He stressed that the Government is committed to provide its support to local producers and agro-processors who are the pillars towards ensuring food security.<\/p><p>In this context, a number of measures have been announced in the Budget 2022-2023 to provide support to the community of potato growers namely, the maintenance of the potato boost-up scheme to assist planters in purchasing seed potatoes and an increase in subsidy on the price of potato seeds from 50% to 75%. The Minister observed that these measures have not only provided support to our potato producers but have also boosted the local production.<\/p><p>The Honourable Minister Maneesh Gobin highlighted that the Food and Agricultural Research and Extension Institute (FAREI) has carried out research on production of new potato clones that have been found to be encouraging both in yield and tolerance to diseases.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-08c7298 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"08c7298\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-33a6ff5\" data-id=\"33a6ff5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca4f96e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ca4f96e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot6.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2157\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot6.jpg 960w, https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot6-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-889b785\" data-id=\"889b785\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fae25d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"fae25d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1016\" height=\"631\" src=\"https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot7.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2158\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot7.jpg 1016w, https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot7-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/farei.mu\/farei2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Pot7-768x477.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1016px) 100vw, 1016px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1cbbfa4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1cbbfa4\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-564f8c9\" data-id=\"564f8c9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-710f024 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"710f024\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>During his visit, the Minister also took note of the grievances of planters who are called to face various challenges in the wake of climate change, pandemic outbreak and availability of resources.
