Up to 80 percent of wheat production costs are in USD. Masuka said the Grain Marketing Board (GMB) will purchase all wheat financed under the Presidential Input programme as well as by the self-financed farmers and will be the buyer of last resort. He said contractors may arrange to sell to GMB. More: Pindula News _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
