St Vincent and the Grenadines farmers continue to benefit from free small tractor services.

In Region 1, District 3, Aldrich Noel benefited from a ploughing operation conducted on his farm on Thursday 14th July.

According to Agricultural Assistant, Lynette Thomas, this type of service reduces manual labour and costs associated with land preparation.

The service has ploughed approximately 30 acres of farmland to date.
