Agriculture Ministry Improving Facilities to Boost Agro Processing

Agro-processors of Cassava, Bay Oil, and Toloma will soon have complete facilities to allow them to produce in keeping with international food safety standards.

These agro-processors are receiving the support to renovate their processing facilities through a one point five-million-dollar Project.

Coordinator of the Modernization of Traditional Crops Project Miranda Laurent-Stephenson says among the goals is to provide a safe place for these agro-processors to enhance their trade.

Stephenson says the Ministry of Blue and Green Economy, Agriculture, and National Food Security has funded 98% of the project.
