    This can also be perpetrated by our competitors so europeans will reject our products in favor of theirs.The association need to sit up and scrutinize pineapples being exported out of Ghana

    We need to trade among ourselves. Let's construct rail lines to link African countries so that we can move goods with ease among ourselves.

    Why is this fruit called pineapple? It neither contains apple nor pine!

    Teach pineapple growers how to use organic fertilizer and plant based insecticides to grow pineapple.
    We can also use animals and birds to control insects on our farms.
    Or even goat and sheep droppings.
