ALOR GAJAH, Nov 10 — Gadek has the potential to become a hub for modern agriculture and livestock farming, creating job opportunities for local youths and reducing their need to seek employment elsewhere, particularly in Singapore.
Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidate for the Gadek state seat, Jegasilan K, 45, said the area still had vast tracts of land that could be developed for modern vegetable cultivation and livestock farming.
He said former rubber plantations could be transformed into agricultural areas producing various crops for local markets, alongside livestock hubs for poultry and cattle.
“As a local, I see considerable potential to expand modern agriculture in the villages around Gadek, particularly through livestock farming and vegetable cultivation.
