The Ministry of Carriacou and Petite Martinique Affairs and Local Government is working to enhance the island\u2019s agricultural sector through innovative methods. A new hydroponics system will be introduced to improve crop production.<\/p>\n
*Key Developments:*<\/b><\/p>\n
\u2013 *Hydroponics System*: This method allows for efficient water use and increased crop yields, benefiting farmers in water-scarce areas.<\/p>\n
\u2013 *Shade Houses*: Three shade houses are being constructed at the Belair Nursery, providing a controlled environment for plant growth and protection from harsh weather conditions.<\/p>\n
\u2013 *Training and Capacity Building*: Workshops on nursery management and agricultural practices will be held to equip farmers with necessary skills.<\/p>\n
Minister Hon Tevin Andrews believes these initiatives will help Carriacou and Petite Martinique become more self-sufficient in food production, reducing reliance on external sources and enhancing food security.<\/p>\n
These developments are part of the Ministry\u2019s broader efforts to promote sustainable agriculture and support the local farming community in Carriacou and Petite Martinique.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
