Kasempa District Distributes Inputs to 14,500 Beneficiaries Under FISP

Kasempa District has successfully distributed inputs to 14,500 beneficiaries under the Farmer Input Support Programme (FISP) for the 2024/2025 farming season.

Kasempa District Agriculture Coordinator Ernest Munthali says the implementation of the FISP Programme using the E-Voucher system was carried out smoothly, despite internet connectivity challenges and load shedding.

Mr. Munthali was speaking during the FISP, Sustainable Agriculture Finance Facility, and the 360 Mechanization project publicity and sensitization programme in Kasempa.

Meanwhile, Provincial Agricultural Information Officer Kelvin Phiri says the aim of the sensitization and publicity programme is to raise awareness among farmers about the achievements of the government in the agriculture sector in the province.

Senior Headman Kalela of Njenga Agriculture Camp, who is also a beneficiary of the FISP programme, has expressed gratitude to the government for supporting small-scale farmers and for delivering inputs on time.
