The ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives today 28th March 2011 closed the tender on the supply of agricultural fertilizer for the 2011/2012 agricultural season after 2weeks of issue. In the past, the government has favored two private owned companies: Nyiombo and Omnia with the tenders. This year the private sector licked some insider information that Omnia had been part of a deal to fix prices for fertilizer in the country's industry hence allowing its product to form some sort of a monopoly in the market. With this knowledge in the minds of the decision makers, lets see who wins the bid. I will ensure you get the latest news of the results as soon as they are out.
