(Business in Cameroon) - Cameroonian agriculture minister, Gabriel Mbairobe, officially launched on March 15 in the city of Bangangté (West region), the 2019 agricultural campaign for the southern regions.  

As usual, the department will provide farmers with plant material to improve weak production; a situation that exposes the country to massive food imports.

This year, more than one million plantain and banana plants, a bit more than 1200 tons of certified maize seeds, 665 tons of certified potato seeds, 1.2 million cocoa plants, 1.7 million cassava cuttings and 300,000 coffee plants will be made available to producers.
