Last update: 6 hours ago

Chicken Prices Rise: Belize Poultry Association says whole chicken jumps 12 cents per pound effective immediately, citing higher feed, fuel and premix costs—its second increase this year. Food Costs & Wages: Belize’s Labour Force Survey shows average monthly income up 13.3% over four years, but food prices rose faster, squeezing purchasing power. Honey Industry Upgrade: The Ministry of Agriculture launches a Honey Traceability System Registry with TrazarAgro training, starting nationwide registration of beekeepers and apiaries to improve food safety and market access. Public Procurement Pressure: Belize Chamber of Commerce and Industry urges the Government to strengthen controls right away, including smarter monitoring of the Smart Stream accounting platform, not just after investigations. High-Seas Fishing Oversight: Belize selects Satlink for electronic monitoring across its distant-water fleet by 2027, using cameras and sensors to improve compliance and traceability. Agriculture Health Response: Officials investigate pests and disease threats to Belize soursop farms, while OIRSA and Toledo Agriculture run New World Screwworm awareness training for livestock farmers. Trade & Exports: Belize showcases local chocolate at a major Taiwan trade expo via BELTRAIDE’s ExportBelize unit, aiming for new B2B leads. Entrepreneur Grants: BELTRAIDE awards grants to 22 small businesses under BEEP’s second cohort, including 15 women. Energy Policy: PUC approves a Cost of Power Adjustment mechanism for BEL to pass through higher imported electricity costs until domestic generation expands. Regional Governance: CARICOM’s 51st summit ends with a CCJ advisory opinion path on the Secretary-General dispute, while leaders push forward on integration priorities.
