Yam Now a Traditional Export Commodity

Fresh yam has since November 20, 2002 been classified as a traditional export commodity, the Ministry of Trade and Industry said on Tuesday.

A notice to exporters and the general public by the sector Minister, Dr Kofi Konadu Apraku said the use of the Ghana Export Form for export of Non-Traditional Goods would no longer apply to yam export.

The notice said all yam exporters should therefore use the Bank of Ghana Exchange Control Form A.2.
