Kota Kinabalu: Kemabong Assemblyman Datuk Rubin Balang wants the State Government and Government-linked companies to enhance the agriculture industry by collaborating with stakeholders in the agriculture sector.

During the debate on the 2024 State Budget at the State Legislative sitting on Monday, he emphasised that farmers and players in the agriculture sector should work together to produce high-quality hybrid fruits.

“This collaboration has the potential to greatly benefit the socio-economy of the community at the grassroots level,” he said.

He suggested that the government could enhance its agricultural support by offering training on planting, care, and harvesting techniques.
