Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Kalumbila District Farmers Association Chairperson, Nsubula Hachipabeenda says the Food Reserve Agency (FRA) crop price for white maize does not reflect business reality following the announcement of crop prices yesterday.<\/p>\n

Mr Hachipabeenda told ZANIS that a crop price of K250 for white maize instead of K160 would have been helpful considering the price of fertilizers on the market.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere a 50 kilogramme bag of D-compound and Urea is fetching between K800 and K1, 100, a K250 would reflect business sense,\u201d he said. Mr Hachipabeenda however said he has not received any complaints from farmers in the district as regards the soyabeans and rice crop prices.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, yesterday 16 June 2022, FRA board chairperson Kelvin Hambwezya announced at a press briefing in Lusaka the FRA 2022 crop marketing arrangements.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease note that prices being announced are not floor prices but rather FRA prices under the principle of willing seller and willing buyer\u2026 2022 FRA crop prices; white maize 50 kg at K160, soya beans 50 kg at K550 and paddy rice 40 kg at K200,\u201d Mr Hambwezya said. He said FRA undertook a process of crop price scenario analysis and consulted with some key stakeholders in the agricultural value chain.<\/p>\n
