In a social media post following his visit to the area, Temesgen said the farmers had demonstrated the value of identifying their locality’s agricultural potential and shifting toward more profitable and sustainable production in line with the country’s development direction.
In Gobeya Kebele of Tehuledere Woreda, he said, farmland has been transformed into fruit and vegetable clusters, describing the development as a valuable contribution to Ethiopia’s ongoing drive for food sovereignty.
Temesgen recalled Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s message during the inauguration of Logo Hayk Resort that Haik should become not only a place of historical significance, but also a center of fruit production, abundant agricultural output, beauty and prosperity. He said the transformation now visible around Haik is giving practical expression to that vision.
The Deputy Prime Minister said the government will continue providing the necessary support for the development, stressing that fertile soil, clean water and a hardworking population provide a strong foundation for prosperity when their potential is harnessed through coordinated and sustained efforts.
