You have been drinking too much. There is not suggestion that my advice will save anything. Rice cannot be sold as a one product and be successful. It has to saturate every avenue of its use and still hope for some luck to make it a stable income generating source. Rice is not competitive for the people with three acres depending on someone else s tractor etc. For farmers with over 50 acres it is quite feasible. Each acres can net close to 1k US in 6 weeks and three times a year in favorable times.
Then instead of playing monday morning quarterback, describe how the farmer can be competitive with other world producers. If you don't have a solution then stop playing a know it all.
Dude, you are just a nitwit ninny. Our rice is not prohibitive on the world market. Our financial system and marketing strategies are deficient. I do not know it all but what I know is light years from where you stand.
Stop avoiding the question and answer why Guyana's rice is not competitive on the world market. Why are other nations producing rice cheaper and what can Guyanese farmers do to increase yield and decrease expense. This is the conundrum that needs to be resolved, not a ranting about rice flour and value added derivatives to compensate for inefficiencies in production.
