Say this prayer if you have decided to accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.

Dear Heavenly Father,
I admit that I have done things that are against your will for me. Please forgive me for my sins. I believe in my heart that Jesus died and rose again to take away my sin. And I declare Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Please fill me with your Holy Spirit. Thank you for saving me and thank you for hearing my prayer. In Jesus' name. Amen.

We must act fast and stop the snail paced reaction from politicians. This is a disincentive to farming. Let's be serious!

We are not serious as a nation.We have tons of locally produced rice unsold and rice is being imported into the country. No wonder we cannot feed ourselves as a nation. We do not want to eat what our farmers produce but rather prefer to eat imported food items. How can the country progress with such an attitude.The government should stop rice importation. If ghanaians will not eat rice produced in Ghana they can go to hell. How can farming be an attractive profession when what our farmers produce are not patronised by ghanaians? Ghanaians are the enemies of Ghana.

Massa the imported perfumed rice is cheaper due to the dollar gains that is the problem. The farmers have to understand this and reduce their prices below that of the perfumed rice

What do you expect if the locals wanna eat with their 2 hands ? Someone imports rice , pays heavy duty on them yet cheaper than yours that is operated locally , no duty . The farmers or the local traders should rather be reasonable in their pricing instead of being the greedy that they are . They should feed them to their families . No sane person will buy theirs if they want to enrich themselves in seconds .

Local rice are very good and I think millions of Ghanaians will want to eat them and proudly help the economy but the PROBLEM is that the price oooo… when 5kg of perfume rice is 90 cedis or local rice is 130 cedis. Same quantity, workers are not having and salary increase, it’s hard for everyone but our farmers horde goods waiting for price hike. If government will buy a subsidize, Ghanaians can patronize but until then they should work on realistic price reduction. The foreign rice pays import duty and all but still very cheaper compared to home grown. We beg this farmers.

The world price of rice is currently 360 USD per tonne and this rice is valued at 460 USD per tonne. Why is anybody surprised that it can't sell?
