Food solution: A youth activist says that more young people should venture into agribusiness as preparation to face the possibility of a food security crisis.

KOTA KINABALU: The government should continue with efforts to empower the Young Agropreneneur programme during the tabling of Budget 2023, considering its impact on promoting the agriculture and agro-based industry to young people, says a youth activist.

Azizul Julirin said the programme needs to be continued to attract more young, especially in Sabah, to venture into agribusiness as preparation to face the possibility of a food security crisis.
