we know bro. The problem is our leaders.

Hmmm, really¿¿¿

Olasco93:
After buying, they will use it as Raw material and still import the products to us with Low quality.

toh how we go do na?

Alphasoar:
We are still very much relevant in some areas.
If only we can harness our agricultural potentials as a country, we would be relevant than even America.

my broda u say!!?

Something tells me this is no good news! I just can't shrug off the feeling no matter how hard I try. It keeps ringing that Nigeria will be the loser in this deal. Poundo yam from China may flood Nigerian market in few years to come.

Alphasoar:
start from supervisor for agriculture in your LGA.

which supervisor are u talkin about?..... What did those politicians knw about farm or yam?

hmmm it s sounds good sir but what are we doing to encourage massive production so that we have plenty yam millionaires while keeping d price low n affordable within?

Alphasoar:
If it becomes 'gold' then lets MINE it and get more gold!

What other staple food will d masses now have? When a tuber of yam becomes 7.5k($15)?!

engrobidigbo:
hmmm

While this is a good development, there are pros and cons to this;

PROs:
1) It enhances positive balance of trade
2) It provides more forex to our country
3) It further strengthens our currency
4) It further expose our business men, even farmers and agro-cooperatives to international businesses

CONs:
1) Nigerian's are known to abuse such opportunities and if not properly checked, you might find some people adding plywood as yam chips. Some might even try to smuggle hard drugs along with the yam chips to china
2) We lack proper food sufficiency and the situation will further worsen because farmers will surely try to export more than sell locally for more profit
3) If there's no proper education and training on processing and packaging, our farmers might end up losing millions of naira from destroyed products at the receiving border due to the poor standard we use to process and package our products here.

Nevertheless, i wish every prospective beneficiary of this opportunity a huge success

Predict 4 things that will happen to recession too and stand to win my attention.

basilo102:
when anambra govt said they were set to export yam some people insulted them

Obiano has foresight and it is what makes a good leader we are happy with his numerous achievements

They could connect you to means of exporting your farm produce sir.
Sometimes too, good things do come out of Nazareth!

My brother your grandfather is a Nigerian and by that, he has a land or farming area.
Carry your cutlass and hoes, go and farm! Shikena¿¿¿¿¿

Na wa for ur ignorance o! How are u certain I dont already run a farm?

Just jumping feet first up n down! Chill, unlike u, i'm not thinking of myself, but those that dont have access to land for farming nor enough education to get a well paid job, so they can afford as many tubers at wareva price!

It will still end up the way our palm oil ended up in Malaysia.. Very very soon we will start importing yam from China.. Cus they(Chinese) will take over the market sooner than later.. Mark my word

God forbid
