The wait is finally over as the first crop at the Galana Irrigation Scheme begins to show signs of a harvest. Food production at the scheme which has experienced delays since 2013 due to various challenges is expected to help address food insecurity in the country as well as create employment for locals. The first maize crop has been planted on the 10, 000 acres model farm and will be ready for harvest next month.
