New Processing Facility for Bonasika Creek Farmers

In a significant move to boost local agriculture and access to high-value markets, President Dr. Irfaan Ali announced the development of a new processing facility at Bonasika Creek, Region Three. This facility will process fresh ginger, extending its shelf life and facilitating entry into more lucrative markets. This initiative complements the regional ferry service, enhancing farmers' ability to export their produce efficiently. This development is part of a broader effort by Guyana and CARICOM to ramp up regional food production and security.
