Kesedar to tackle national food security issues, says Ahmad Zahid


GUA MUSANG: The South Kelantan Development Authority (Kesedar) has the potential to become a major domestic food producer through the 'Kesedar Food Valley' programme to tacklet the food security issue and boost the production of agriculture and food in the country.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic) said Kesedar’s efforts in using over 900 hectares of land for new crops in Gua Musang should become the new benchmark for government agencies.
