Talks will be held on the Fiji 2020 Agriculture Sector Policy Agenda during the Fiji Crops Sector Forum meeting in Nadi from Monday.
The Policy sets a development framework for Fiji’s agriculture economy by addressing emerging domestic and global challenges, including food and nutrition security and climate change.
The Fiji 2020 Agriculture Sector Policy Agenda itself complements the National Green Growth Framework, which seeks to pursue sustainable development with an inclusive approach towards modernising Fiji’s Agriculture Sector by 2020.
The Meeting is a joint effort between the European Union supported Pacific Agriculture Policy Project, implemented by the Pacific Community and the Agriculture Ministry.
The meeting will be attended by MOA staff, farmers and farmers’ organisation representatives as well as other relevant stakeholders from the private sector.
They will work together in identifying the main constraints and potential strategies to take the sector forward.
The weeklong meeting will be held at the Tanoa International Hotel in Nadi.
