Agri society, farmers pledge to stop St. Augustine housing construction

The Agricultural Society of TT (ASTT), together with the Farmers Union and local environmental activist Dr Wayne Kublalsingh have vowed to stop the construction of houses on lands presently occupied by the St Augustine nurseries including the use of “Kublalsingh style tactics’ should that become necessary.

ASTT president Dhano Sookoo told a news conference at the OWTU’s Paramount Building headquarters, Circular road San Fernando today that government's decision was an “assault on the agriculture sector in Trinidad and Tobago”.
