Hawaii farmers hit hard by the pandemic

Farmers are used to disasters like droughts, flood, parts and diseases that destroy crops, emerging out of these situations is one thing and the current pandemic is a whole different thing. The impact on farmers is so terrible that they are at the verge of shutting down days Governor David Ige. Consumption had grisly reduced and farmers are losing their markets due to various reasons but mainly due to shutting down of hotels, restaurants, schools! Markets etc. Hawaii is primarily

dependent upon farming there are as many as 7328 farms according to the U.S department of agriculture. Crops like Macadamia nuts, seed corn and coffee tops then all add the priciest and are commonly exported. Whilst measures being taken to minimise dependency on imports and let the agricultural industry flourish the extent of virus outbreaks impact could be too big to assess.

Green leafy vegetables tend to easily rot and hence difficult to manage, to combat this Hawai emergency management agency is trying to identify cold storages to curb losses. Government has stepped forward to provide aid to the farmers as well as carve out paths to deliver their products to prisons, at home customers etc. One such effort is made by Maui county farm bureau that used around $60,000 from county grant to purchase products from those in need and The Prison system too has put a forward to purchase avocados and breadfruit.

State agricultural department is now providing am emergency loan program to those affected by COVID-19 with a loan amount of $15,000 with an interest rate of 3% also a relief is being provided to farmers from state loans and land leases. Ironically though there are many who are in need of food a truckload of edible fruits, vegetables, milk and a whole lot of their food products are being wasted and thrown away which is downright disheartening, hopefully, the government aids and other initiatives could help wipe out this wastage and bring some relief to the farmers.

Now that New Orleans has to stay in their original position in the first round of 2020 NFL draft and get the player they wish for if only Queen is available at number 24 the Saint's would be able to get him.

FÚTBOL COLOMBIANO | La gran cifra que deberá pagar Palmeiras a Nacional y Cortuluá por Miguel Borja después del fallo de la FIFA - Comutricolor

Esta noticia llega en medio de los graves problemas financieros que tiene el club paisa.

La suspensión del FPC provocó que el 'verdolaga' entrara en una crisis económica a la que aún no encuentra solución, sin embargo, una vieja deuda podrá 'rescartarlo' o por lo menos ayudarlo en este difícil momento. Es que ya se conoció la gran cifra que deberá pagar Palmeiras a Nacional y Cortulua por Miguel Borja después de que la FIFA falló a favor de los equipos colombianos. Días atrás se supo que el 'verde de la montaña' está en una situación de imposibilidad financiera, pues así lo confirmó el presidente del club. Por eso la noticia de Borja será celebrada en la institución antioqueña, porque ante las dificultades para reanudar la Liga BetPlay 1-2020 los ingresos no parece que vayan a aumentar. ¡Se cansaron de que 'los dejaran en visto' y ahora se pronuncian con vehemencia! La 'millonada' que Nacional reclama por Felipe Aguilar y por la que irá a Fifa para que respondan "A la fecha, Atlético Nacional sigue esperando el pago de las dos cuotas" > https://t.co/0lYYLXUZRGpic.twitter.com/KyVLt7BroJ — ComuTricolor (@ComuTricolor) April 22, 2020 La gran cifra que deberá pagar Palmeiras a Nacional y Cortuluá por Miguel Borja después del fallo de la FIFA: A través de un comunicado oficial el 'verdolaga' anunció cuál fue el fallo de la Comisión del Estatuto del Jugador de FIFA respecto al proceso de Deudas Vencidas que existía por lo sucedido con el delantero cordobés: "Según el fallo, Palmeiras deberá pagar 3 millones de dólares más intereses por el traspaso del atacante Miguel Ángel Borja Hernández, los cuales corresponden en u 70% a Atlético Nacional y un 30% al Club Deportivo Tuluá. En caso de que el demandado no pague esta deuda en los próximos 45 días no podrá inscribir jugadores para los torneos nacionales o internacionales donde participe. Es importante advertir, que una vez se haga efectivo el pago por parte del Palmeiras, los recursos  que efectivamente sean recibidos por Atlético Nacional serán destinados al cumplimiento de obligaciones con entidades financieras" La FIFA falla a favor de Atlético Nacional en el caso Miguel Borja. Palmeiras (@Palmeiras) deben pagar los 3 M, más intereses. Buena gestión del presidente Juan David Pérez y toda la administración. pic.twitter.com/ZHgrlZYSgs — Atletico Nacional de Colombia (@ATLNACIONALCOL_) April 22, 2020 Según el comunicado Nacional tendrá que recibir 2'100.000 dólares (8.456'700.000 pesos colombianos), mientras que el Cortuluá recibirá 900.000 dólares (3.624'300.000 pesos), sin contar los intereses. Esto significa que, teniendo en cuenta que deberán pagarse en los próximos 45 días, el 'verdolaga' recibirá un importante estímulo económico para asumir sus gastos mientras que la Dimayor logra los permisos del gobierno nacional para reanudar el FPC. Como el delantero está a préstamo en Junior, había dudas de si esto implicaba algún costo extra, pero no tiene ninguna influencia y el negocio de los barranquilleros es aparte con los paulisatas. >>Más novedades del fútbol colombiano en ComuTricolor<< ¡El propio Juan Carlos Loustau dijo que sí hubo intento de intimidaciones!"creen que tienen consecuencias intimidatorias con un árbitro…" Posted by Comutricolor on Wednesday, April 22, 2020
