The
coordinating director, Nigeria Agricultural Quarantine Service (NAQS), Dr. Vincent Isegbe, disclosed this
recently in Abuja during a two-day workshop organised in partnership with
COLECAP, themed : “The Role of Public
and Private Sectors in Sanitary and Photosanitary Systems for the Fruits and
Vegetable Sub-sector.”
Hmmm!!!
Folks, let us say the truth and shame the devil. Many Nigerian non-oil products
exporters have been defrauded of huge amount of money in the process of
exporting agricultural commodities and solid minerals to foreign countries. Do
you know why? They were not trained on export operations, management,
documentations and the best methods of payment in export trade. This is
terrible!!! Nigerians cannot continue to lose money to foreigners in the course
of export business. Exporters, would you like to keep on being scammed? Why
don’t you get a practical manual that explains the stages of export trade from
processing and packaging of commodities to receipt of payment by the foreign
buyers? It explains export operations, export management, export documentations
and methods of payment in export trade? Yes, it is a contemporary step-by-step
guide to export trade. It tells all the contemporary dynamics in export trade.

Dr. Isegbe , who emphasised that balanced
diet cannot be achieved without fruits and vegetables, said through advocacy
and active participation of Croplife, an international agriculture chemical
company, chemical level on agric produce was declining.
The EU
banned Nigeria in 2015 from exporting beans and other produce to Europe due to
high level of chemical contamination. http://www.tectono-business.com/2016/02/contemporary-step-by-step-guide-to.html
The director however averred that the federal government has carried out series
of periodic sampling on the level of chemicals in beans to bring the official
ban to an end in June 2019. “With that, we will know if
the farmers are complying with our regulations and advice, so far, the chemical
level is reducing. Though it at a slow pace but it’s reducing,” he
affirmed.
According
to him, the country has a demand of 40, 000 metric tons vegetable but unable to
achieve. He said the country currently don’t export fruits yet it imports a lot
of apples for local consumption. “We can grow all these
commodities all year round either winter or summer. We have a great opportunity
to send these commodities to European nations, America during the time of
winter or when the winter is just finishing, so the market is always there,” he
stated.
However,
he described the workshop as an opportunity for stakeholders to discuss and
provide sustainable solutions for fruits and vegetable export to other nations.
