Gov't to engage Burkina Faso over tomato export suspension, urges calm

The Ministry of Trade, Agribusiness and Industry has announced plans to engage authorities in Burkina Faso following a recent decision to suspend the export of fresh tomatoes.

According to a statement issued by the Public Relations and Communication Unit, the engagement with Burkina Faso counterparts will seek to address concerns surrounding the ban and chart a mutually beneficial way forward for both countries.

The ministry assured that the government reiterates its commitment to working with stakeholders to boost local tomato production under the "Feed Ghana" and "Feed the Industry" programmes, which are aimed at increasing output to meet demand in the domestic market.

"Again, we are calling on tomato traders to remain calm as efforts are underway to

secure an amicable resolution," the statement reassured.
