800 acres of gov’t land opened for B40 agriculture under the IPR initiative - superadmin - 02-25-2023 ECONOMY Minister Rafizi Ramli said the government’s people’s income initiative (IPR) to be launched tomorrow (Feb 26), will ensure a stable food supply and low prices that can be enjoyed by various layers of society. As part of this initiative, the government will open up 800 acres of government land for agricultural purposes, providing opportunities for capital support and training.
