In Konya's Hüyük district, farmers were provided with 50% subsidized certified chickpea support.
Hüyük District Director of Agriculture and Forestry, Ahmet Tingiş, reminded that the 'Leave Fallow with Chickpeas' project, prepared by the Konya Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry within the scope of the Agricultural Land Use Activation (TAKEP) project, which is being carried out as a sub-project for the development of plant production within the General Directorate of Plant Production of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, is being implemented this year.
Tingiş stated that work is continuing in the direction of having chickpeas planted instead of fallowing for farmers in the Hüyük district within the scope of the project. "As a result of our work, we have delivered 20,000 kilograms of Certified Chickpea Seed, which is 50% subsidized by our ministry, to 253 farmers. With the delivered seeds, chickpea cultivation will be carried out on a total of 1,600 hectares of land. Within the project, sufficient chickpea seed has been delivered to our producers. I hope the seeds, which will meet the soil soon, will yield fruitful and abundant crops. Congratulations to our farmers."
