By Jeff Kizzilah | Digital Editor
Fahim Kibos has urged farmers and agricultural producers to prioritise soil health, quality soil management and sustainable farming practices, warning that a lack of awareness about soil conditions could threaten agricultural productivity and the future of farming.
Speaking during the Fertilizer, Soil Health and Sustainability Conference, Kibos emphasised the importance of understanding soil quality and adopting farming practices that support long-term productivity.
He warned that farmers who do not understand the condition and requirements of their soil risk making decisions that could undermine crop production.
“We are in a lot of trouble if farmers don’t understand the kind of soil they are working with,” was the warning attributed to Kibos during the conference.
He called on farmers and producers to embrace quality soil management, consider organic soil improvement practices and adopt sustainable approaches that can maintain soil fertility for future generations.
Kibos also highlighted the need to address the lack of awareness among farmers, noting that knowledge about soil health is essential for making informed decisions on fertiliser use, crop production and sustainable agriculture.
The discussions underscored the importance of combining appropriate fertiliser application with sound soil management practices to improve productivity while protecting the long-term health of agricultural land.
As a key player in the agro-industrial sector, Kibos is associated with sugar production and the processing of agricultural products, linking farming activities with value addition and industrial development.
The call comes amid growing attention to sustainable agriculture, with farmers, agricultural experts and industry stakeholders being encouraged to invest in soil knowledge and practices that can support a productive and resilient agricultural sector.
The message is clear: Healthy soil is the foundation of productive farming, food security and the future of the next generation.
