  "summary": "The Federal Government has projected that agriculture could contribute up to 30% of President Bola Tinubu’s $1 trillion economy target, potentially generating an estimated $300 billion for the country. This projection was made during the launch of the Grassroots Digital Extension Corps (GDEC) in Abuja, which aims to improve farmers' access to agricultural knowledge, increase productivity, and strengthen the connection between research institutions and farming communities. The initiative involves training 1,884 personnel, including 1,110 agricultural extension agents and 774 food security specialists, across Nigeria's 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.",
