2019 Ready: Howard Mitchell
As we ready for 2019, who better to signal our economic direction?
As far as economic direction is concerned we should be doing all we can to promote agricultural industrialisation and pushing our outmoded farming into the 21st century with modern technology.
Food security is becoming more and more important and we need to de-urbanise our cities. There’s big bucks in utilising our great food products with their unique flavour profiles in high-end niche markets in North America and Europe.We just need to produce good quality and package it right.
I get enquiries from as far away as Iceland for Jamaican products.
The College of Agriculture Science and Education (CASE)
in Portland should be given all the support because it’s on the right track in training our young people in modern agricultural technology.
