    "content": "Irrigation is very important. We cannot depend on rain-fed agriculture and expect to maximize on production. It is important for us to make sure that in future, as we go into 22 Ministries, we should pair up irrigation and agriculture because they go hand in hand. If it is done that way, then proper planning can be done and irrigation can be embraced by the farmers, so that they can get their produce throughout the year. They do not have to wait for certain seasons where there is rainfall. Of late, because of the climatic changes, rainfall has sometimes let people down even for several years. You find that drought is hitting us and the rainy seasons have become shorter. Even when it rains, it floods and destroys even the crop that was growing. We need extension services, but the extension workers must be given extension inputs in terms of the farmers being able to produce throughout the year."
