    “Because the local food terminal markets are tied to food terminal markets regionally and internationally, and we witnessed where approximately 20 farmers were able to sell their produce to the facility and it was exported and the farmers have been paid, and they received just under $20,000 for that first shipment, it was a trial, and there is request for a shipment on a weekly basis. So for the farmers in Marriaqua and surrounding areas, we have secured a market for $20,000 worth of dasheen weekly,” Caesar said.
