NATION WITH STRUCTURING PROGRAMME FOR CEREAL PRODUCTION

The Director of Food Security,
David Tunga, said Wednesday in
Luanda that there are in the
provinces of Huila, Kwanza Sul
and Kuando Kubango structured
programmes aimed to produce
cereals (maize and rice) in great
quantity.
David Tunga who was
addressing Angop at celebration
of International Food Day, which
is being celebrated on
Wednesday, said that the
production of these cereals is
significantly improving the scale
of food security in the country.
Despite of that, without pointing
figures, he said the country is still
facing some deficit due to
drought problems hitting
southern and coastal region of
Angola.
The official said that the creation
of State Strategic Reserve is
aimed at increasing the
production, as the country has
already given giant steps in
terms of construction of
infrastructure such as silos in
Luanda, Huila and Malange
provinces.
Therefore, David Tunga said that
the products as well as the silos
will establish the State strategic
Reserve.
