Minister for Agriculture, Dr. Mahendra Reddy
Another 3,000 farmers throughout Fiji who will cultivate at least one acre of land with root crops or vegetables will get $200 each under Cash for Cultivation Program.
The Australian Government has provided $800,000 for this program.
Minister for Agriculture, Dr. Mahendra Reddy says this is not for existing but new crops as they want to expand agriculture.
He says 1,000 farmers have already benefitted from this program in Phase 1 after they received assistance from Adventist Development and Relief Agency.
