The National Ginger Association of Nigeria (NGAN) has pledged to ensure that Nigeria's comparative advantage in ginger receives a boost through quality export in the global market.

The National Ginger Association of Nigeria has pledged to ensure that Nigeria’s comparative advantage in ginger receives a boost through quality export in the global market.

He then enjoined members to engage in quality production of ginger and ensure that Nigeria’s comparative advantage in the production of the commodity receives a boost by producing and exporting quality produce as well as leveraging international best practices. “We have issues of poor post-harvest handling, use of inorganic chemicals among others. We want to improve the yields the farmers get. We also want to move from conventional weighing per bag to per kilogram because a lot of sharp practices happen both ways between farmers and buyers”.

“Coincidentally, I am the first and only indigene that has used the dry port in the last five years to export ginger. The problem is not from the dry port here but the congestion at the other end. The process here is very smooth and I encourage people to use it. It is a one-stop shop – customs, payment, etc,” he said.
