Botswana canโt build an agricultural sector if retailers import the moment borders openโฆ say what you want about the BDP but theyโre right hereโฆ Lifting the ban without safeguards seems to have been a mistake.. farmers have lost market access overnight..!!

@FrankChigwa @TheOfficialBDP The claim has some basis: Botswana lifted its vegetable import ban in phases through 2025 to address supply shortages and high prices, per reports from Daily Maverick and others.
