My uncle has just set up a juice processing factory in ogun
state. We have imported the necessary machinery and
equipment. Now, we intend to start processing pineaple
juice from real fruit. Having discussed with local pineaple
farmers in Ibadan and Cotonou, we observed that the
cotonou pineaple is cheaper and sweeter than nigerian
pineaple. My uncle is very worried because he would have
loved to patronize nigerian farmers so as to encourage
them but we are into business for profit making.
He has decided to sign a contract with cotonou pineaple
supplier for regular supply of pineaple fruit to his factory
for production. I am very sad with that decision cause we
are improving the rural income of cotonou farmers at the
expense of nigerian pineaple farmers.
That's why I want to know why farmers in nigeria can't
cultivate the sugarloaf pineaple specie of the cotonou in
Nigeria. Since it is more sweeter and cheaper than our
locally popular robust pineaple grown. So that nigerian will
patronize the local pineaple farmer and stop importing
pineaple from cotonou? |
