Tuvalu Coconut Sector Rehabilitation Programme

About this project

The proposed action aims to revive the agricultural sector in Tuvalu, and in particular its coconut and vegetable sub-sectors. This will be carried out on the one hand through a coconut rehabilitation plan, which requires a combination of agricultural replanting including an agroforestry approach for coconut palms. The low yield in coconut production has limited private sector development and hindered the domestic trade market for local coconut products reducing the possibility to earn a living. The coconut rehabilitation plan aims to change this by focusing on coconut rehabilitation and the development of coconut products with a high added value. A significant part of the action will be devoted to agroforestry-based coconut replanting activities, trainings and institutional strengthening for coconut production. A part of the action will further be devoted to support the development of high-value coconut products and the framework for coconut industry development through different product specific activities, trainings and possible investment in equipment for the production of various products. On the other hand, the action will support the development of the vegetable production through the new Agriculture Sector Plan, which will outline the strategy for developing publicly and privately owned production facilities, and for enhancing the marketing of vegetables.The proposed action intends to contribute mainly to priority area 2 ¿Inclusive and Sustainable Economic Developmen…
