In a significant move to boost vegetable production in Manisa, the Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry distributed 800 thousand seedlings to farmers as part of the 'Tomato, Pepper and Eggplant Production Development Project'. This initiative falls under the 2024 'Enabling the Use of Agricultural Lands Project' (TAKEP), aimed at enhancing vegetable production, reducing input costs, utilizing unused lands, and increasing the production of disease-free, high-quality vegetables. With 75 percent grant support for the seedlings, the project, supported by the General Directorate of Plant Production, seeks to elevate the income of small-scale plant production enterprises, as emphasized by Provincial Director Metin Öztürk.
