Horticulture farmers have expressed frustrations over hiked vegetable, fruits seed prices especially French beans and chili and appealed to the Government to introduce seed-subsidy program to facilitate their farming.

The concerns were raised in Kigali on 20th November 2020 during a meeting of stakeholders in horticulture subsector to discuss issues and opportunities around the seed industry in Rwanda.

They explained that Chili pepper farmers need Rwf 700,000 or Rwf 1 million to afford seeds to plant on a hectare depending on sought variety while the price for French beans seeds to be planted on a hectare is Rwf 500,000.

Devotha Mukaserire, the representative of farmers’ groups involved in the agriculture of fruits, vegetables and flowers in Rwanda cited higher price for Hybrid seeds as one of major challenges facing farmers.

'Seeds for vegetables, fruits and flowers are very expensive. Most of them are imported leading to higher prices. That’s the most challenging issue. This pushes farmers try to evade the high cost by multiplying seeds themselves with inadequate skills that sometimes multiply seeds from sick crops resulting into the spread of crop diseases,' she said.

Mukaserire explained that chili and French beans are the most expensive even though seeds for tomatoes, carrots and green pepper and green pepper are not sold at fair price.

She appealed to the Government to intervene by producing expensive seeds locally to make them affordable at lower cost or implement subsidy measures to facilitate smallholder farmers who fail to plant these crops due to soaring price.

Emille Uwimana, a chilli farmer in Rwamagana district also reminisced on the higher and demanded for measures to subsidize vegetable seed price.

'I am required Rwf 720,000 to grow chili on a hectare and over Rwf 500,000 to grow French beans on the same land. This is additional to funds invested to hire arable land and pesticides making it a huge investment,' he said.

Uwimana said that expensive price incurs loss sometimes in case of poor market conditions.

Alex Uwizeye, Country Coordinator of AgriProFocus, an international multi-stakeholder network in the agri-food sector explained that expensive seeds should not matter because it goes with quality seeds and improved produce.

'We consider something expensive when invested money cannot be recovered. However, it is corresponding when something expensive brings good productivity. The matter should be finding out whether everyone can afford such seeds. Not everyone can afford it but we don’t want everyone to grow chili,' he said.

Uwizeye however explained that concerned parties including AgriProFocus are seeking remedy to produce vegetable seeds locally to reduce cost.

Dr Assinapol Ndereyimana, a researcher at Rwanda Agriculture Board(RAB) explained that French beans and chili are particularly for business people.

'Chili is exported and seeds grown in most places are the same. It is rarely sold at low-cost. The seeds for chili are not expensive on one hand because many people are doing it for business purposes. I am against the idea of introducing subsidy program for chili growing yet it is like other businesses,' he said.

Dr Ndereyimana highlighted that other seeds are classified into different categories that farmers can chose from a wide variety matching their financial means.

He pointed out that onion seeds vary from Rwf 10,000 and Rwf 40,000 while the cost of Hybrid seed costs Rwf 150,000.

RAB is undergoing research on chili seeds so that farmers can afford them in coming days.

Jacques Tuyishime, the Managing Director of Holland Green Tech which sells agro-inputs including vegetable seeds among other agricultural equipment explained that high cost of vegetable seeds emanates from resources investing by manufacturers.

'Planting chili on a hectare might require between Rwf 700,000 and Rwf 1 million investments on seeds. However, the produce recovers the capital and generates profit. If chili seeds take 10% of the capital, it doesn’t mean expensive cost. Farmers have inadequate means sometimes requiring them to seek loans from financial institutions. It takes big investments but generates huge returns,' he observed.

Akenshi usanga abantu bajya impaka ku mugabo witwa Yobu bamwe bemeza ko yabayeho naho abandi bakabihakana bavuga ko ari imfashanyigisho, ariko ukuri guhari ni uko yabayeho nk’uko Bibiliya ibivuga. Wakwibaza ngo ni ikihe gihamya cy’uko yabayeho? Muri iyi nkuru turarebera hamwe uburyo bwemeza ko Yobu yabayeho.

Yobu yabayeho kandi yavukiye mu gihugu cya Usi (Hus cyangwa Uz). Abaroma bizihiza Umunsi Mukuru wa Mutagatifu Yobu kuwa 10 Gicurasi buri mwaka, naho Abagiriki bawizihiza kuwa 6 Gicurasi aho bibuka Yobu nk’umukiranutsi w’intangarugero ndetse waranzwe no kwihangana kudasanzwe.

Bibiliya ibivuga ho iki?

Amateka ya Yobu tuyasanga muri Bibiliya mu gitabo cya Yobu 1:1 Mu gihugu cya Usi hari umuntu witwaga Yobu, kandi uwo muntu yari umukiranutsi utunganye, wubaha Imana akirinda ibi. Si ibyo gusa ahubwo hari n’abandi banditsi bamwanditseho harimo Ezekiyeli na Yakobo.

Ezekiyeli 14:12-14-15 Maze ijambo ry’Uwiteka rinzaho riti: “Mwana w’umuntu, igihugu nikinkorera icyaha kigacumura, nanjye nkaramburaho ukuboko kwanjye ngakuraho urushingikirizo rw’umutsima , maze nkagiteza inzara nkagitsembamo abantu n’amatungo, n’aho cyaba kirimo abo bantu batatu, Nowa, Daniyeli na Yobu, gukiranuka kwabo kwakiza ubwabo bugingo gusa. Ni ko Umwami Uwiteka avuga”.

Ezekiyeli 14:20 “N’aho Nowa na Daniyeli na Yobu baba bakirimo, ndirahiye ko batagira icyo barokora ari umuhungu cyangwa umukobwa, gukiranuka kwabo kwakiza ubwabo bugingo gusa”. Ni ko uwiteka avuga.

Mubyukuri biragara ko Imana ubwayo yahamije ko Yobu ari umwe mu bakiranutsi bayo yemera. Bityo nta mpamvu yo gushidikanya ko Yobu atabayeho kuko yihanganiye ibikomeye byinshi kugeza ubwo Imana yamutangiye ubuhamya.

Mu rwandiko rwanditswe na Yakobo 5:10-11″Abahanuzi bahanuye mu izina ry’Umwami Imana mubakureho icyitegererezo cyo kurenganywa no kwihangana. Mwibuke ko abihanganye tubita abanyehirwe. Mwumvise ibyo kwihangana kwa Yobu, kandi muzi ibyo Umwami Imana yaherutse kumugirira kuko ifite imbabazi nyinshi n’impuhwe”.

Hano, Intumwa Yakobo aributsa abantu urugero rwa Yobu, amugaragaza nk’umuntu w’amateka ufite imico myiza igomba kwiganwa na buri wese. Na none, Yobu yerekanwe nk’umuntu wabayeho by’ukuri atari ibihimbano.

Igitabo cya Yobu ubwacyo, hamwe n’ibindi bitabo bya Bibiliya, byerekana ko Yobu ari umuntu w’amateka. Nta mpamvu yo gutekereza ukundi. Byongeye kandi, urebye ko Kiliziya Gatolika impuguke zayo zahurije hamwe mu gutekereza ko Yobu ari umuntu nyawe kandi w’amateka ukwiye gushyirwa mu batagatifu, nta muntu n’umwe wakagombye guhakana ko Yobu yabayeho.

Ese yobu yakomokaga he?

Umurongo utangira mu gitabo cya Yobu ugaragaza ko Yobu yari atuye mu gihugu cya Uz hafi ya Edom kandi yari umuntu ukomeye kuruta abantu bose b’i burasirazuba (Yobu 1:3) byumvikane ko yari atuye i burasirazuba.

Dushingiye kuri ibi, dushobora kubona ko Yobu atari Umuyahudi cyangwa ngo akurikize idini y’Abayahudi. Ariko yizeye Imana imwe rukumbi nyakuri (YAHWE) bitewe no gusobanukirwa ubuntu bwayo.

Hanyuma, tuzi ko Itorero ritubaha Yobu nk’umuntu wihangana gusa, ahubwo rimwubaha nk’umuhanuzi. Ibi bisa n’aho bitangaje, kuba igitabo cya Yobu muri rusange kidafatwa nki’gitabo cy’ubuhanuzi.

Yobu yavuze amagambo menshi y’ubuhanuzi mu gitabo cye, ariko ay’ingenzi ni aho asobanura yemeza ko yizera umuzuko wa Yesu kandi akizera umuzuko wacu uzabaho. Ibi byose wabisoma mu gitabo cya Yobu 19:23-27.

Byongeye kandi Yobu yemeza ko yabonye Iman ati: “Ibyawe nari narabyumvishije amatwi, ariko noneho amaso yanjye arakureba”.Yobu 42:5

Muri macye, kwihangana kwa Yobu ni ikimenyetso gifatika kandi kigereranya imibabaro Yesu w’umuziranenge yagombaga kwihanganira kugira ngo tubone agakiza.
