Zaqy Mohamad on support for revised local farming goals
The revised targets for local food production balance ambition and pragmatism by considering what Singapore can produce and scale locally, as well as the challenges its nascent sector faces. Senior Minister of State for Sustainability and the Environment Zaqy Mohamad said this in reply to MPs’ questions in parliament on Tuesday (Jan 13). He said the government will focus on food types that are feasible to be produced at scale efficiently and this is consistently applied in its grants and land tenders. It will provide more information on its support schemes in the coming weeks, he added.
