Guyana Celebrates 100 Years of Rice Exports - Nov 12, 2008

At an event to celebrate Guyana's 100 years of rice exports, the country's President, Bharrat Jagdeo, said that in the light of climate change farmers should move into aquaculture, which would bring in more income than rice.

Speaking at a ceremony to mark the 100th anniversary of rice export, Jagdeo spoke about climate change, which he said could have a serious affect on the country's rice production, and advised farmers to focus on aquaculture.
