@ElineNamibia @ML_Musik Yes. In the last 5 years trade.

Wondering how Namibia’s trade flow with Russia & Ukraine looks like

Well, Namibia imported over the last 5 years, wheat seeds valued at N$1.3billion from Russia

Here is our new infographic to highlight top traded products between the countries. #tradeanalysis #agritradepolicy

@hagegeingob can your government not fund Namibians, particularly the youth to take over this industry and fence it off for them instead of asking foreigners to came and take over? @patience_masua @EmmaTheofelus

@ndunge_j @NIPDB The two grains were excluded from the horticulture. We have two top grains in the country, white maize and wheat. Those are the import values.

In light of the Agriculture Seminar by the Namibian Agronomic Board (NAB) hosted by @NIPDB at Dubai Expo 2020 during the week 20 - 26 Feb 2022, here is a cool info graphic that highlights opportunities in the crop sector.

What is your fav crop to consume?

It is not bad to import. Trade is not just about exporting. Import is used to substitute for a more affordable product for the domestic market while maximizing export earnings for Forex.

Namibia has an advantage to enter world markets 2 weeks before everyone…

[Aluteni @Aluteni_]

I don't understand, if we export so much grapes (worth close to a Billion Nam Dollars), why do we still import those 22Mil worth of grapes?
Can NAB not say we must all just eat Namibian grapes?

ATF did this trade analysis for imports of live chicken and eggs into Namibia for the past 5 years.

What is interesting is the increase in trade of live chicken and eggs from Zambia.

Chicken meat import is largely sourced from Netherlands, Brazil & South Africa.
