The Marketing Centre

The Government Marketing Centre, now part of the Department of Conservation Services, provides several services to agricultural producers. These include:

  • the purchase of potatoes under quota directly from farmers;
  • storage of agricultural produce;
  • procurement of agricultural inputs including seeds, pesticides, cartons and bags;
  • production and sale of ice;
  • banana ripening;
  • and providing farmers with information related to agricultural production practices.

 

The Centre is also responsible for management of agricultural embargoes. When embargoes are in place, the Centre serves a brokerage function in matching buyers and sellers of produce items.
