When will the PPP do what you have listed above? in another 50 years? because GuySuCo, GPL, GWI and everything else they touch is a complete shit show.

 

For heavens sake they cannot even get a decent airline to go to GY. So what ***** you talking here again today?

1. My family owned coffee estates in the Pomeroon River, where I used to spend the July/August holidays.

 

2. Though the industry suffered during the 1964 to 1992 period, it never failed and the media do highlight the developments from time to time.

Please deplorable expressions my ass, you cannot handle the truth. you want  a free pass for peddling bullshit. Isn't that the truth?

FM

BTW this is your opinion.

 

Though the industry suffered during the 1964 to 1992 period, it never failed and the media do highlight the developments from time to time.

 

The truth is the industry has collapsed. Coffee growing in Guyana as an industry and contributor to the GDP is negative. FACT!!!!!!

 

These are the FACTS something you struggle with. Provide other data to dispute what I am saying here.

Funny,  You asked some valid questions of DG and got a warning.

 

Wonder if you will be warned about this.

 

In addition to posting an article DG made comments.  I see no reason why he shouldn't be made to defend them.

If they find solid international markets for the coffee, this might be a fruitful venture.  Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee sells for US$5.99 a cup in some restaurants in my neck of the woods.

The market is controlled by big business. Without them you stand zero chance of getting Guyanese coffee on the market. And what the coffee costs in the shop has no bearing on how much the coffee trader will pay you for it. Just look at the Brazilian coffee growing and trading market for more clues.

It's a fallacy to think that Guyana can enter the international market with coffee.

There is always a starting point for every product and there is nothing to lose if they try to slowly market this product.  One advantage they may have is the 'low cost'.  Since rice and sugar are our main exports and they are 'losers', coffee can be explored.

Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee is well renowned for high quality.

 

Guyana coffee hasn't been since the 19th century when the Brazilians drove them off world markets.

FM

Guyana to have a viable coffee industry will require significant capital investment and support from the government to make it happen.

 

Any country that is in the coffee market has serious and substantial governmental support.

 

The PPP is not interested in that kind of investment, they are only interested in quick cash for the pocket. They are in sell off mode now since they have realized their days are numbered.
