Thats it ...I have rice farm myself but I don't support this banning its rubbish and not sustainable

In Thailand they get 8 to 12 tons per hectare while here u would be lucky to get 1 ton to 2 ton

Jonathan government focused on seed development and increasing yeild

We have cheaper labour ...infact if nigeria average 6 tons per hectare and can plant 3 times a year like Thailand ....trust me rice importation would die naturally because then I can sale 50kg for 5000 and still make profit

What grain has the government developed in the last 5 years ?
What research has been done to kill those evil birds that eat our rice ?

Building mills is not a problem ....research is the issue
Will you invest in mills if there was no feed stock?

I cant eat local rice.....im allergic to it.

Foreign rice is produced through better mechanised processes nigeria has failed to adopt.

If anything the government should look into supporting the upgrade of our agricultural processes.
Why not invest in the upgrade?

Are you not a big man?

Seriously no
I'm waiting to have enough money to fund Imsu AND UNN to develop my own seed that can give me 12 tons in 100 days ...that's the first thing first

Or it will lead to even greater production as farmers and Millers alike identify an opportunity.

You don't like 'local rice', but you eat local beans and garri, that have stones. Some Nigerians are really stupid.
