Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Mining, Hon. Floyd Green (second right), demonstrates how a walk-behind tractor can be used in ploughing land. The demonstration exercise followed a handover ceremony for walk-behind tractors and earth augers, held on Wednesday (November 26) at the Amity Hall Agro-Park in St. Catherine. The equipment will be distributed in parishes with difficult terrain that were not hard hit by Hurricane Melissa, to assist with the Ministry’s recovery strategy.
