Ghana and Uganda are among a huge number of African nations restricting the commodity of grains and other homestead produce with the last option forcing high duties to forestall food products to adjoining nations, reports Isaac Mugabi for Deutsche Welle.
The Ghanaian government has broadened a restriction on grain trades - initally a transitory prohibition on sending out maize, rice, soybeans, and other grain. The boycott which produced results in September 2021, will currently run until September 2022. The first boycott was set up to guarantee food security and increment neighborhood poultry and animals creation.
The boycott augmentation comes as grain costs take off, somewhat because of the conflict among Russia and the Ukraine. A few ranchers have communicated their misery with the expansion, saying they would get better costs on the off chance that they sell their yields beyond Ghana.
The Ugandan government thusly is forcing high duties on food items like maize, soybeans, rice, and wheat to keep brokers from selling their items beyond the country
