FOOD SECURITY RESEARCH
SCOPE
Together with a team from Wageningen University and Cambisol, we looked into how we could increase agricultural efficiency, upscale local yield and work on measures against pests. These measures are deemed necessary in order to increase local food security and thus decrease dependance on food imports. This may be of particular importance as hurricane frequencies are expected to increase.
APPROACH
-
Concept plans were designed in the Netherlands.
-
Site visits to St.Kitts & Nevis agricultural lands.
-
Discuss problems and solutions from an agricultural perspective with farmers from St.Kitts & Nevis and other islands such as St. Eustatius and Montserrat.
OUTCOME
Plan and approach reported to CARDI
