We need to think and approach Agriculture/Agribusiness from a multidisciplinary perspective and also raise Agro-based businessmen & women (Entrepreneurs) if we want to be self-sufficient.
Blessing says: Lecturing is going beyond mere teaching and selling of hand-outs. Passionate and patriotic teachers in the high schools, colleges or higher institutions are taking education to the next level- "Integrated lecturing"

Role Modelling Event of Dr. Mrs. B. C. Okogbue
As an AWARD fellow, Dr. Blessing has been empowered to influence,
lead and bring about change. She is expected to impart her generation,
share acquired knowledge and creative ideas to move the world/Nigeria
forward via a forum. This the African Women in Agricultural Research
& Development (AWARD) calls, a ROLE MODELLING EVENT.
She thinks Agriculture has been relegated in Nigeria for so long which has resulted to untold hardship for the citizens. She feels Agriculture should be given a good facial lift. Yes, the Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Adesina has done quite alot but she feels more should be done to boost agriculture in Nigeria.
She therefore calls for a forum to give a sensitization lecture she titled; "Think Agriculture". She believes all hands should be on deck and every profession on board for Agriculture to move to the next level.
She thinks Agriculture should be tackled from a Multidisciplinary perspective, where every professional creatively thinks on how to tailor his discipline to support agric. development. She is using this opportunity to invite you to participate at the event. Be there!!

Growing crops and veges in wetlands
Places located in the Niger delta areas are characterized by high water table, protracted rainfall, moist soils and water logging. Notwithstanding, it is imperative that strategies to face these challenges be put in place to encourage crop production instead of the massive importation of vegetables and other crops into the city from neighboring states.
Bayelsa being a coastal city, is surrounded by water and most lands polluted by oil activities. This polluting activities also affect the water bodies thereby hampering fishing activities.
Dr. Blessing Okogbue is working towards an agricultural sensitization lecture to educate the people and expose some level of truth in the possibility of full agricultural activities in the riverine state not minding the wetness of the terrain.
A lot of youths are jobless, idle and also complain that jobs are not available. If the little available lands can be cultivated, lots of food can be produced by the state and a lot of willing young people can be engaged productively.
Please add your comments on crops that can thrive in a typical Bayelsan soil. Thank you

Agric-based Recearches: Very important in universities and colleges of agriculture
We could give it a fair trial to see how it works and the impact it can create.
Giving every department in our agrio-based institutions room for innovative involvement to tailor their professions towards solving agro-based problems and tackling issues related to agricultural value chain development. Think about it! How do you mean?
