TUBMANBURG, June 3 (LINA) - The Central Agriculture Research Institute (CARI) in Suakoko, Bong County, is discussing with Banana Farm and Folley Town communities in Bomi County to set up a Cassava Multiplication Site in the two areas.

Bomi County Agriculture Coordinator Christopher Momo told the Liberia News Agency in Tubmanburg recently that the two communities have completed brushing and felling of trees in preparation for the proposed site.

He said Folley Town in Dewein District and Banana Farm in Senjeh District are preparing ten hectares each to plant the cassava under the supervision of the West Africa Agriculture Project Program (WAAPP).

Momo said when the 2014 activities planned for the agriculture sector are fully implemented, the lives of the citizens of Bomi County will be improved.
