Mar 22, 2013

CASTRIES, St. Lucia, CMC - Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony says the Windward Islands Banana Production and Marketing Company (WINFRESH) has a “moral” obligation to ensure the survival of the banana industry in the St. Lucia, Dominica, Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Addressing the opening session of the Windward Islands Agriculture and Bananas Technical Management Symposium, Prime Minister Anthony said WINFRESH has “a moral as well as practical duty to play its part in efforts to resuscitate banana production in the four islands. “This is not the time for a silent retreat from bananas by governments or by WINFRESH. WINFRESH exists first and foremost for the farmers of the region, not just for banana production and the marketing the fruit and products of the region,”
