Kota Kinabalu: The Young Graduate Agropreneur Development Programme (Probest) has produced positive results in Sabah, says Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup.

He said the Ministry is committed to exploring new opportunities to collaborate with stakeholders to increase the participation of potential youths in the agricultural sector.

“This includes strategic collaboration projects with Agrobank and several local universities, namely Probest,” he said while launching the programme at Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS), here.

He noted that this programme reflects Agrobank’s commitment to serving all layers of society by helping asnaf students generate income and improve their living standards.
