10/03/2018 11:21:10

Thursday, a delegation led by Eugene Branly the Director General of the Ministry of Agriculture, composed of officials of the Directorate of Agricultural Infrastructure (DIA) and other officials of the Ministry met in Arcahaie, members of the Association Irrigants of the Arcahaie Plain (AIPA), who has been working for over 20 years in water management in this area and currently has 450 active members.

The objective of this meeting was to identify the main needs of this commune with a view to increasing agricultural production, in particular the banana sector, and finding appropriate solutions to certain diseases, including the "Black Sigatoka", which eat up banana production in this region.

Eugene Branly said that the Ministry intends to increase its actions in this part of the country by supporting the banana farmers and associations of Arcahaie.

The delegation took the opportunity to visit several irrigated perimeters.
