In the context of advancing the plan to further diversify and strengthen the non-sugar agricultural sector in the country, Cabinet discussed the role of the CARDI (Caribbean Agriculture Research and Development Institute) in assisting the success of our local agricultural programme. Cabinet was updated by the Honourable Minister of Agriculture on the need to support the restructuring of CARDI so that our goals could be more efficiently and more effectively achieved.
Cabinet was pleased with the progress made in the agricultural diversification programme and committed strong support for the Minister of Agriculture’s request for land and other resources so that the sector may exceed its last year’s performance when the output in the production of fruits and vegetables grew by 134%.
