Koh Poh Koon on growing Singapore’s agri-food ecosystem
The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has progressively built the agri-food ecosystem of productive farms, by harnessing science and technology to boost production and preparing the necessary spaces and infrastructure, said Senior Minister of State for Sustainability and the Environment Koh Poh Koon. Replying to MPs’ questions in Parliament on Wednesday (May 8), he said SFA is working closely with the farms through initiatives such as facilitating regulatory clearances and supporting capability development by co-funding the adoption of technology. This is done through the Agri-food Cluster Transformation Fund. To date, it has committed more than S$23 million of co-funding to 60 projects, said Dr Koh.
