Agri to grow by 4% till 2022
Excerpt
Despite a slight slowdown in the country’s agricultural performance last quarter, the Department of Agriculture (DA) is eyeing a progressive annual growth rate of two, three and four percent for this year until 2022. “It will be a tall order, mainly due to natural and man-made calamities that will impact on the production of rice, corn, vegetables, major crops, swine, poultry and fishery products, but we are confident we could attain such modest growth rates in the next three years,” William Dar, DA secretary, said.
