True.
We must demand our house of assembly and senate members, as well as members of our state parliament push this across all spectrums.

Our wealth and security depends on our food security and optimisation of the agricultural value chain.

We must spend money on security.

Southern Nigeria must occupy our forests... build forests reserves with forests rangers and barriers, guard dogs too should be employed to guard forests. Forests rangers must be given automatic weapons, radio communication and training on self defence and surviving in the forests.

Our forests should be turned into training grounds and building of barracks for our forests rangers and security/vigilante units, these forests should also be used for agriculture, with forest guards given specific duty areas, ensuring the anti grazing law is effected fully and anyone caught living in forests arrested unless you are a licenced indigenous forests ranger. All states have their own hunters, hunters should only hunt in their state, licenced by the state authorities, all other hunters must be outlawed from carrying guns beyond their state...hunting across state lines is how infiltration and gun proliferation spread.

You are thieves and deserve all the losses and more. God will continue to punish all of you. Greedy merchants and middlemen. Senseless hoarders.

Every part of the bolded statement reeks of enormous greed, selfishness, wickedness and any other name evil assumes.
Mo.ron.
I guess you were sleeping during basic economics and commerce class in junior secondary school.
If there were no middle mean and merchants to stock and store seasonal foods and grains, malnutrition would have killed you long before you were able to articulate your first thought.

With this write up, you expose your ignoramus standards grin

Seasonal price changes happen every year, as new harvest happens, things will become a little cheaper, until the next planting season when the new harvest will be getting dried up by demands. Go back and read your economic textbooks, demand and supply dictate prices, and not greed. Traders are experts with demand and supply seasons, and they flow with the tide, and swim in profits regardless of anything you think.
Are you saying that those traders that are counting their losses in the above report are liars or mere propagandists?

There's a big difference between storage and hoarding. Half-baked graduates everywhere.

Ever since I was moved to band A around March ,I have reduced my cooking of beans to once a week or none sef,beans Sabi chop electricity sha,it takes over one hour to get done.


Enough is enough,Eba and stew is what is surviving me daily now

They hoard beans to jack up the price,the fools don't know beans get easily attacked and destroyed by weevil after months and loose value
You dey band A and still dey use electric cooker?
Re: Enugu Traders Count Losses As Beans Prices Crash by DJInfluence: 4:15pm On May 03, 2025
No sympathy from me. The loss in profit is due to their greed plain and simple.
Hoarding the product hoping for the price to get higher in order to make more profit.

No there is not.
You're obviously not a business person and probably never done any business before.
Every merchant hopes to sell products whenever it is most profitable.
If crayfish is cheapest during the rainy season and most expensive during the dry season, a crayfish merchant would be absolute mor.on not to buy low in the rainy season and sell high during the dry season. This is common sense, this is universal, this practice goes all the way back to the very beginning of commerce in the human march of civilization.

Greedy Nigerians but the President is always the scape goat, blame FG even for the greed of the traders. You hoard foods just for the purpose of hiking the price in the future, yet Nigerians insults the Government over artificial high food prices. It is only in Nigeria that prices come down and they will refuse to lower price, when fuel comes down, transporters refuse to lower price. Even in the North, some traders are angry food prices are crashing. Enemies of the state.
Remove the cost of transportation from any food hike and you will realize govt is the bigger problem

imagine we have good road channels and a good rail system working effective ... oya undermine the impact on Prices of farm product

The ewu that wrote the above piece doesn't know that traders has mastered the art of seasonal price fluctuations which they experience yearly since 1900 grin

Nobody will lose a dime, you just load up on the cheap new stock and add your price and sell, as the seasons turn the other stock will rise and you start selling the costly ones at high prices.

They experience this every year, but propaganda mills will write nonsense to sell their bigotry.

People pump rubbish news according to their hateful expectations and go back to laugh at their idiocy.
Maybe you didnt read the post, Beans is a perishable item that can not be stored beyond a year ... as it stand those one they hoarded, its either they sell on time or lose completely

They cant restock if they dont push the ones at hand out 1st ..
Re: Enugu Traders Count Losses As Beans Prices Crash by Testimony1988(m): 8:00pm On May 03, 2025
Hmmmmm, they were part of those who were hoarding the beans and making the price expensive, they should have known the price of beans will crash by taking note of the market trend, it's better they sell it now to avoid further crash on the price of beans.

Buying the new stock means you have to cough out money, maybe even loan

Selling the old stock 1st is not profit, you projected to sell it at #50 and you are now selling @ #30, time cost of storage you go happy tongue

That new stock you want to hoard again, you don 4get east harvest will hit that one tew ... then it becomes a vicious cycle

North climate is favorably ahead this time so hoarders go hear am

Oh my God! I am tired of arguing with these motor park touts that haven't sold anything in their lives.

Gosh!

Didn't you hear that as a beans dealer, I can get as many bags I need on credit from my trusted suppliers and still pay them after selling? Who takes bank loans in retail business?

I could have given you a lesson in business but, what's the need, your brain is still stuck in hate. What's the use in teaching you?

Has it dropped to the price Tinubu met it in 2023? Because that’s the only real crash. Anything else is just noise and propaganda.
What of the price it was in 1985?

When I buy #50 without paying immediately (not credit as your uneducated mind is thinking) if the market gets flooded, I will pay the supplier #30 per bag as you said. He knows the market is flooded and he cannot blame me for flooding the market which I didn't cause.

Retailers are like gold to the suppliers, he will be happy I am even selling little of his stock at whatever prices when the market gets flooded as you say. He could eat his bags of beans if he disagrees with me on the lower prices, remember the market is flooded, he cannot do anything apart from beg me to keep selling.

But the reality is the market will never be flooded. Bad roads and insecurity blocking stocks coming from the north will always create artificial scarcity which makes for higher demand. I have never seen where the beans market is flooded since the 80s. Beans has never been enough in Nigeria, that's why the price keeps rising every year.
