Challenges Facing the Tillage Industry: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Andy Doyle:

The breakdown of the 5 million tonnes of product that was imported in the past 12 months is probably between 2.1 million and 2.2 million tonnes of what we call normal grains, that is maize, wheat, barley, oats and soya. As for the rest, some of the products are wheat expeller, soya expeller, palm kernels, products from molasses and beet pulp and those kinds of products. They are fillers, proteins and such. That is my understanding.
