During the inauguration of the committee, the governor said its members are charged with the responsibility of ensuring that every citizen in the state has access to safe, nutritious, and affordable food.

“As we embark on this journey, we must acknowledge the challenges ahead. Climate change, population growth, and economic instability threaten to disrupt food production and access. Yet we must remain steadfast in our commitment to overcoming these obstacles.

 

“We will focus on supporting smallholder farmers, empowering rural communities, and leveraging innovation and technology,” he said.

 

“I urge each committee member to approach their role with dedication and compassion. Our success will be measured not so much by the policies we formulate but by the tangible impact we have on the lives of our fellow citizens.

 

“Let us work together, drawing upon our collective expertise, network, and experience to develop solutions that address the root causes of food insecurity in our state,” he said.
