Taraba State, on Friday, celebrated its first successful Green House harvest since resuming operations, marking what officials described as a new dawn in agricultural innovation and sustainability.
The yield, which included an abundant harvest of green pepper and cucumber, signals the resurgence of the once moribund facility and positions the state at the forefront of Nigeria's technology-driven agricultural revolution. In a statement issued in Abuja, the Project Manager, Navon Gil, described the harvest as a major breakthrough for Green House farming in the region.
"A new day has indeed arrived for Green House farming in Taraba. This technology has come to stay and is among the best in the world", he declared.

According to him, the innovation is poised to establish Taraba as one of the most agriculturally advanced states in the country.
