Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 74295, member: 636"] MATAN Food Bank rolled out a digital food security system at a three-day event in Lagos that pulled farmers from every state to talk about fixing hunger from the ground up. Olakunle Johnson said the plan uses multipurpose ID cards linked to bank verification numbers and national ID info to cut down on food line chaos, and they want to register over 200 million people while setting up street-level feeding machines for both raw and cooked meals. The group partnered with large-scale farmers to handle production, while MATAN manages storage and distribution through community teams that collect data and run local food banks. Former Gombe deputy governor Joshua Lidani called it unprecedented, and Dr. Olajide Bashorun from Miss Farms said bringing farmers together with fair pricing and input support could boost output and stabilize communities dealing with hunger-driven problems.
