Each farmer received 50 kilograms of modified seed and 100 kilograms of chemical fertilizers.
Similarly, the Department of Agriculture, Irrigation, and Livestock Management of the Taliban group in Badghis reported that they have supported 510 livestock owners in the districts of Qads, Muqor, Aab Kamri, and the province’s center.
