PM says work on fixing sugar roads starts immediately

Agreement in sugar dispute reached

Prime Minister Dean Barrow today announced that BZ$2 million worth of works on the sugar roads in the north will commence immediately.

The announcement of the commencement of the repairs to the sugar roads come in the aftermath of the signing of a memorandum between the Belize Sugar Cane Farmers Association and the Belize Sugar Industry (BSI) paving the way for negotiations on the amount to be paid for bagasse.

A short statement from the office of Prime Minister Barrow notes that government “is pleased that the efforts of the Government in getting ASR/BSI to accept the obligation to pay farmers for bagasse, have helped with this breakthrough.”
