If we want our country and economy to falter, crumble and die, LETS BRING IN CHEAP NO GOOD rice! Better mek Brackett campaign that Belice es de Guatemala if we want to bring in this garbage.
NOOOOO.. Give our local market a chance
WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT SLOGAN “BUY IN BELIZE BUILD BELIZE” ABSOLUTELY NO!!! NO GUYANESE RICE SHOULD BE IMPORTED WE HAVE OUR LOCAL RICE PRODUCER THEY COME FIRST.
Of coarse, allow the rice to be imported. the price is good. and i support the farmers down south to be paid equally just like the mennonites in Blue Creek. Afterall mennonite rice and beans are not quality at all. Lieing to the people. They are not good at all. you still find peble and stone fromn their rice. beans are rotten and selling it expensive too. thats not quality They are not good at all. Not quality.
@Peter So you can tell me that it is logical and productive to import rice that is not sustainable on the long run, when we as a country have finally gained self sustainability in this area? You tell me that that is logical?
Guys am not against local producers. what i am against is the fact the rice are not good as they say. No. 2
My question to you who do you call local producer?
Hello i am a farmer and i knw what i am saying.
