Always repeated, never justified. Too low for what, exactly? Not too low to feed Sri Lankans. Maybe too low for that and also as much of export crops as had been needed to pay to import massive amounts of fertilizer and pesticide.
Importing food would be a much better use of foreign-trade money than importing pesticides.
