KOTA KINABALU: Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) will be collaborating with a local fertiliser supplier in an effort to strengthen eco-farm agriculture as an educational platform based on research training for the benefit of all stakeholders, especially students and agri-entrepreneurs.

UMS vice-chancellor Prof Datuk Dr Kasim Mansur believed that these efforts through the collaboration with Yun Fung Sang Group Sdn Bhd could encourage more local parties to get involved in the field of agriculture and create avenues for research activities in the oil palm and other agricultural fields.
