Fertilizer prices to be cushioned

Agriculture Minister Given Lubinda says he is taking interventions to ensure fertiliser is supplied to farmers at affordable prices.

Mr Lubinda says this follows the escalation of fertiliser prices on the local market.

He was speaking when President Edgar Lungu launched the E-Voucher agro scheme in Choma’s Mbabala area on Monday.

Mr Lubinda reminded agro dealers that replacement costing is not the best way of doing business.
