Parliamentary Representative of Castle Bruce Constituency Octavia Alfred has announced that 29 Bay oil producers of Petite Soufriere have sold 1,946.50 pounds of oil to the Dominica Export Import Agency (DEXIA). According to her, the Bay oil producers of Petite Soufriere are grateful that they could also benefit from the new programs the Government of Dominica put in place to support farmers on the island.
“On Wednesday, 29 Bay oil producers from Petite Soufriere sold a total of 1,946.50 pounds of oil to DEXIA,” she revealed. “The Bay oil producers are very thankful and they are very excited and some people who are new Bay oil producers are very excited…”
Alfred continued, “Young people are getting involved.”
Furthermore, Alfred said Bay oil production is a special kind of farming, “it may not fall under food production which includes the growing of crops and the rearing of animals.”
However, she acknowledged essential oils are becoming increasingly popular as many products such as air freshers, detergents, sanitizers, insect repellants, cosmetics, hair products as well as certain medications utilize natural oils as a substitute for harsh chemical-based products.
Alfred commended the number of young Bay oil producers in Petite Soufriere.
“The number we have there is very encouraging and we are happy for the commitment that the Government of Dominica has made to us as Bay oil producers,” she stated.

Mrs Octavia Alfred has hardly, if ever, met face to face with her constituents of Castle Bruce to find out how they are faring under these times of unprecedented unemployment, rising inflation and ubiquitous crimes.
This is typical of the Labour Party’s politricians. They contribute a measly sum of pubic funds to a cause then publicise their ‘grand’ gesture to all the news outlets that are sympathetic to them.
Again, ask the Castle Bruce residents when was the last time this parasitic hypocrite traverse the constituency to keep in touch with the people who employed her.
Again more political rubbish from this phony intellectual Ibo France. This is an opportunity to get involved and build up the bay oil industry. Sadly all he can do is spew political venom and get angry because some people are making an effort to bring back a once vibrant industry.
What happen, you Labour party fools just woke up? Tell Dominicans how much Bay oil Dominica sold and money made at the peak of our Bay oil exports. “Petite Soufriere sold a total of 1,946.50 pounds of oil to DEXIA,” she revealed. Is this a joke, the excitement! Dominica used to export tons of Bay oil, it’s where Frank Baron made his money exporting Dominica Bay oil to the UK and Europe! We had a Dominica Bay Oil Co-operative, tell Dominicans how Labour destroyed all of that! It is like silly season with you Labour party stars of stupidity!
