incentive for summer onion growers : Summer onion producers will be provided with more government incentives, Agriculture Secretary Wahida Akter said yesterday.
Bangladesh is registering a slow spike in the cultivation of onions during summer with the government patronising the expansion to reduce high import dependence during the lean season from October to November.
In 2022, Bangladesh’s consumers had to buy edible oil by paying historic high prices because of record prices in the international market and the country’s high dependence on imports to meet its demand.
