Some stakeholders in the Nigeria agricultural food sub-sector, have decried the rejection of locally produced food crops exported from the country to Western countries.They lamented that their produce for export had been rejected in United States and the European Union countries because the produce contained high residues of agrochemical substances, Punch reports.
He said, “Most of our goods were returned while exporting, based on the fact that they could not pass the test of quality control. That quality control might entail; the chemical content in our products due to lack of adequate knowledge on the application of agrochemicals.” Raymond Abogonye, acting deputy chief of party, Feed the Future Initiative, the United States government’s global hunger and food security initiative, said the United States government was concerned about the safety of the food consumed as well as those who produce the food, as the motive behind the launch of agro-safety ambassadors.
He said, agro-safety ambassadors which is the first level of awareness in addressing the challenge, in the pilot scheme, is expected to reach 500,000 farmers in the four states of Adamawa, Gombe, Borno and Yobe, where the activity is being implemented in the North East.

Why US, EU countries reject foods exported from NigeriaStakeholders in the Nigeria agricultural food subsector, have decried the rejection of locally produced food crops exported to Western countries. The only thing left to be rejected from Nigeria is oil and then that’s it. Most countries of the world have food safety standards, but in Nigeria it’s just plant and put any fertilizer you see to boost growth. Gov. Should provide them with Extension Agents. Why wouldn't they reject them? Can anything good come out from Nigeria? Even the buhari there is a copy and fake!

It's pure psychological warfare or mind game they're playing and nothing else really. DSS and MBuhari can't do more than Pharaoh. Time shall tell
