Kenyan government removes ban on raw macadamia exports
The Kenyan government has temporarily lifted the ban on export of raw macadamia nuts, which was in place since 2015, to offer the growers better prices. According to Moses Kuria, Cabinet Secretary at the Ministry of Trade and Industrialization, the ban will be lifted for one year to open up the market to global buyers, a move that will see growers fetch more from their produce.
