Notwithstanding the challenges occasioned by the advent of COVID-19 during much of 2020, the Guyana Marketing Corporation (GMC) is reporting an increase in the volume of its traditional agricultural exports with coconuts, pumpkin, watermelon, heart of palm, and eddo, leading the way.
A release from the state-run agency which has been playing a pivotal support role in the agricultural sector, including the agro-processing sector, said that during last year the country recorded a 9% increase in the export of non-traditional agricultural commodities between January and December compared with exports in 2019, the constraints arising from the still-raging pandemic notwithstanding.
