Miyetti Allah Alleges Agrochemicals on Farms Are Killing Cattle

The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria has asked crop farmers to avoid toxic pesticides and agrochemicals, alleging that cattle have died after grazing on treated farmlands. The association said the reported incidents could worsen tensions between herders and farmers in rural communities. It called for restraint and dialogue on safer farming and grazing practices. Some farmers, however, say agrochemicals are necessary to protect crops from pests and reduce harvest losses. They also argue that farms need protection from damage linked to open grazing.
