Enforce ban on grains, soya beans export – GRA to Customs Division

The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has instructed its Customs Divisions in border towns to enforce the restriction on the export of grains and soybeans.

In a statement issued by the Assistant Commissioner of the Ghana Revenue Authority, Raphael Owurani-Bediako asked station heads in Tatale, Wonjuga, Bunkpurugu and Saboba to sell grains and soya beans to local buyers only.

It will be recalled that the government extended a restriction on the export of some grains.

The ban, which took effect in September 2021, was due to expire at the end of March but was extended to September 2022.

The original ban was put in place to ensure that enough grains were available within the country to boost the country’s local poultry and livestock production.
