Jamaica to increase ginger production for export

The Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries is moving to improve Jamaica’s ginger production in an effort to satisfy the export market. General Manager of the Export Division at the Ministry, Byron Henry, told JIS News that this will be done by increasing the number of ginger farmers across the island, particularly in the parishes known for cultivating the crop.

Henry said that there is currently a domestic demand for over three million pounds of ginger annually, while the demand for the product on the export market is way above that.
