The state government, which stated that the private sector investment was expected to double within the next one year, added that it was supported by 7,000 smallholder farmers.

Governor Seyi Makinde who disclosed this at the 5th anniversary of IITA Radio and the launch of IITA TV at the IITA the Conference Centre in Ibadan, lauded the fruitful relationship between the state government and IITA, saying it had opened the frontiers of agricultural development in the state.

The governor, represented by the commissioner for Information, Dotun Oyelade, pinpointed the remarkable success stories of agricultural investment in the state and highlighted the significant progress made in agriculture through collaborations with IITA.

One of the remarkable contributions IITA had made to the present administration, Oyelade noted, was the release of its agribusiness specialist, Debo Akande, currently the director-general of the Oyo State Agribusiness Development Agency (OYSADA).
