Re: Ethiopia: The 2nd Largest In Africa & The 5th Largest Flower Exporter In The World

You're boasting about exporting cut flowers while you're receiving billions in humanitarian food aid annually!

You should better grow food crops to feed your own starving people, rather than using your fertile land for growing flowers for western countries.

And guess what - those flower farms in Ethiopia are not even owned by Ethiopians but foreign entities who've purchased massive fertile land for pennies that went into the pockets of corrupt Ethiopian officials.

VERY TRUE.
Most of the foreign flower growers have left Ethiopia.BTW they use hothouses/green house not arable land.

Horus is exporting wheat. :lol: :lol: :lol:
