Nicaragua Increasing Food
Exports to Venezuela
MANAGUA - Nicaraguan food exports to
Venezuela will substantially grow per annum,
said on Tuesday Forestry and Agriculture
Minister Ariel Bucardo.
The rise results from a sale contract
renewed during President Hugo Chavez's April
14 visit. The deal will increase exports to
Venezuela three and four-fold: 24,000 tons
of beef, black beans (20,000t), coffee
(300,000t), and calves.
The sales will include new products like
corn (white and yellow) flavored milk,
poultry, soy oil and raw sugar.
Minister Bucardo made the announcement at a
work meeting in Jinotega Department for the
contract will mostly boost local
agribusiness in this province. |
