The prices of agricultural inputs, particularly seeds have skyrocketed ahead of the agricultural season with some prices going up threefold. According to the recommended prices from Seed-Co, the minimum price for a 25 kg bag of maize seed ranges from $250 to $365. The Grain Marketing Board (GMB) pays farmers $390 per tonne which may make farming less viable for farmers. A few weeks back a 10 kg pack of maize seed used to cost between $32 and $35 but is now going for $100.32.
