Guyana receives shipment of fertiliser from Venezuela

Oct 08, 2013

GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The Guyana government said Monday it had received the first shipment of 5,000 tonnes of fertiliser from Venezuela under a revised agreement between the two countries.
Agriculture Minister Dr. Leslie Ramsammy said the agreement would significantly boost the agricultural sector, as it will address the cost of production for agricultural products.
Farmers have over the years been faced with the challenge of high prices for fertiliser, a constraint which affected not only their trade but the high price for agricultural commodities.
