The District Chief Executive, Hon James Jaaga has appealed to farmers to use funds which were granted to them by Export Development and Investment Fund (EDIF), judiciously to benefit their family and the community in which they lived. He made this statement when he met farmers in Bole who were to benefit from EDIF.
