    "content": "As it has been said by many Members, this is a very important crop because of the high economic potential that it brings. The crop can be used in many things like flooring materials, cosmetics, shoe polish, ink, silk, medicinal and even food colouring. So, it is a crop which has high economic potential. However, it is very surprising that since this crop was used for economic purposes from the 1970s, the Ministry of Agriculture has never thought to include it in the schedule of crops in the Crops Act. That demonstrates the level of laxity in the Ministry of Agriculture. There are other crops across the country which ideally should be included in the list. So, something has to be done about this. It means that the research arm of the Ministry of Agriculture or the organs within the Ministry that are supposed to undertake research are not doing their work.
