$1.1M coconut nursery commissioned
Agriculture Minister Zulfikar Mustapha has commissioned a new coconut nursery at Kairuni, on the Linden/Soesdyke Highway.
While offering remarks at the commissioning, Minister Mustapha said the Ministry is working to ensure proper coconut planting material is easily accessible to farmers across the country.
“Coconut has the potential to contribute heavily to the development of our economy. That is why the Government is putting the efforts, energy, and resources into developing the industry. Over the next five years, we plan to decentralize access to proper coconut planting materials. Today’s activity marks the first step in our decentralization efforts,” the Minister added.
General Manager of the Hope Coconut Industries Limited, Ricky Roopchand, while offering remarks, said the launch of the nursery marked an important day for Guyana’s coconut industry and the farmers of Regions Four and Ten.
“When you plant a coconut tree, whether it’s the 18 months, the three years, or the five years variety, you don’t get anything from it immediately. That is why one of the activities we are involved in currently is doing intercropping, of course with commodities or crops that have a market. That is what we’re promoting, and you will see a lot more of that in place,” Dr. Homenauth said.

So they jump straight to planting coconuts. Is there any type of study that was done to determine whether this would be profitable for Guyana? How about a competitive analysis? who are we competing against, what are their prices? Can we do it for less?
Anybody know? Asia and the east are full of coconuts. What competitive edge does Guyana have? Or are we just planting shit fuh fun and posting headlines about "putting people to work" in something that will soon be dead.
These Guyanese leaders are chupid for days. Everything is a shoot from the hip reaction.
What study do you need to plant coconuts? You people are asking stupid questions by day. Guyana is no stranger to coconut planting. Coconuts cant grow through pollination because birds cant shit out a whole coconut. You folks become university scholars overnight. Doing nothing deserves questions, not the other way around.

...yep...the study and analysis of populations and their piss and shit factors into the building of a sewage system. Of course an uneducated jackass like you won't know that because I bet you still shit and piss in your yard in Richmond Hill. You think the toilet and tub are where you store your liquor.

That reminds me of when I told a guy who had his woodworking shop next door to us if he wanted to keep his beets cold, place a couple at a time inside his toilet "tank" because the water is cold. Eh Eh, one day I stopped in and the guy told me to grab a couple for us, well, I turned down mine..the fool had them sitting in the bowl.

I once worked at Carling brewery and on weekends the guys will fill the sink with beer, covered in cold water. But when they run out of room they did the same thing, place some in the toilet tank, but never in the bowl. I guess if they get drunk enough, they might also use the bowl.
Those were the days. Normally, one beer each for rest breaks and as much you can drink after work, but none to take home.

The brewery had coolers all over the place. So he was lying about putting beers in toilets.
The employees were allowed to drink three during their breaks. There was no need for them to hide the beer in the toilets.
Tota is lying. The employees drank their three beers and at the end of their shift, they took home their three beers.

Was it hiding the beers or cooling them ?

Smart man Rama, do you know the difference between a brewery, liquor store and a bar ? Bhai, don't continue to be dumb, like most in the PPP.
I have a Jamaican friend that works at the Coors Brewery, no drinking on the job, but they are given one case per week to take home, he sells it for $25 per case.

This is a classic example of Forest Gump being smarter than Rama. He don't have a faintest idea what he is talking about here.

You ought to know better than to lie about what others have first-hand information of.
You think that I don't that you worked at Carling brewery on the weekends as a security guard.
I can tell you how the guys stole beers at the brewery and the guards allowed them to do it.

How long after you plant a coconut tree that you can see some revenue? How much nuts per tree on the onset of production, which is estimated to be about 5 years after planting?
Since he days as RO, Mustapha is one talk-man, but little on action to get things done.

I am surprised by your question?
You know very well the byproducts we get from dry coconuts.
Out of coconuts, we can get 8 different food products namely:
- Coconut Oil.
- Coconut Milk.
- Coconut Cream.
- Coconut flakes (desiccated coconut)
- Coconut water.
- Coconut Flour.
- Coconut Sugar (made from the sap of the flower on the coconut palm)
- Coconut Butter.

O ye of little faith. Mustapha will prove that he is the right man for the job, the one you couldn't get with the PNC.
