Speaking on Wednesday during a working session on reviewing the difficulties underwent by promoters of agricultural communitarian companies, the minister added that these measures are meant to create a focal point within the ministerial cabinet, develop a regular monitoring mechanism for communitarian companies' projects, identify problems faced by each company as well as find solutions with relevant authorities.

The working session focused on giving instructions to the regional agricultural development committees, providing them with regional support, with the aim of creating wealth in the regions and promoting the value chains of agricultural products.

These measures also focused on organizing training sessions for young promoters in a bid to help them increase their capacity building in the sector and ease administrative procedures so that they could benefit from privileges granted by the State.
