CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER of the Barbados Agricultural Society James Paul says measures will be put in place to ensure that there is a greater participation from dairy farmers in Agrofest next year.

Speaking in Queen’s Park after the exhibition opened to schoolchildren today, he contended that the industry was too big and contributed too much to the agricultural sector to not have a strong presence at the main national showcase.

Nonetheless, he expressed satisfaction with the other animal exhibits which he said had increased from previous years.

Agrofest is celebrating 11 years. (LK)
