We are talking about livelihood and you are talking about what you have been brainwashed with. Have you heard of the US, IRAN and Israel war ?.

What is causing the huge price differential: is it technology?
We must be minded of the fact that the price of the imported rice includes shipping cost and custom levies.
The goal is to be very efficient!

So why can't the free SHS feeding program purchase these, to feed our kids and grow our industry at the same time?

They don't pay full duty because the importers are in bed with the same government people who are supposed to help local farming.

The local rice producers don't pay any duties at all. Zero. And they still can't compete. The solution lies in adopting farming techniques and technologies that will reduce cost of production and, thereby, prices.

I am happy to hear that enough rice is produced in Ghana. It is time to restrict the importation of rice into the country! Also, government schools should be committed to using only Ghanaian riceto feed the students!

Importation of foreign rice is a problem, but mot the only one. How on earth should locally produced rice be as expensive as rice coming all the way from china,

As long as our cost of production is high the local production will be higher.

Locals want to charge abnormal prices for their produce. Reduce your price if you want to sell. 4 Fingers of Banana is sold for GHC 10 in Teshie, Accra but I bought 32 fingers for 20ghc at Sekyere class to Nkawkaw when I was travelling from Kumasi to Accra. Why the huge difference in the Banana price? Why sell a perishable commodity at a cut throat price. Thankfully, the business of this Banana seller in Teshie has collapsed. I once approached her to tell her she can get some Banana from Sekyere and sell it cheaper to enable her get more customers but she was not interested. She tells me she gets them from a market queen....bla bla bla. Food is meant to be cheap. Ghana is too expensive. People are not reducing prices and it will make the country expensive not only for locals, but for foreigners/tourists as well.
