Farm Lands of Guinea Directors complete visit to Republic of Mali; 10,000 hectares selected with Minister of Agriculture
BAMAKO, Mali, Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Farm Lands of Guinea, Inc. CEO Mark Keegan and Director Cherif Haidara recently completed a week-long trip through the Republic of Mali, where they held meetings with the Minister of Agriculture and the Director of The Office of the Niger, inspecting parcels of land within a 1.2 million hectare area irrigated by the barrage across the Niger River.
"We have decided to proceed with an application for 10,000 hectares on which to grow soybeans, maize, rice and wheat," said Mr. Keegan. "The land managed by the Office of The Niger offers an exceptional opportunity to use the region's natural resources to feed first the Republic of Mali, and subsequently its neighbors," Keegan concluded.
The Republic of Mali is a democracy. The country is largely arid and stretches to The Sahara. "It has this extraordinary area of land which offers enormous potential for large scale agriculture," said Keegan. "The country is well managed and is very clear in its intention to attract foreign investment to assist in its development," he observed. Mali is connected by rail to the Atlantic port of Dakar in neighboring Senegal.
