Agency to supply district with veggies after K1million deal

K1 MILLION has been allocated to the Fresh Produce Development Agency by Pomio MP Elias Kapavore to see the production, distribution and marketing of potato, bulb onion, broccoli and other fresh produce in the district.
Milei, Pakea and Pukulu are three council wards that are going to benefit from this investment.
Other council wards and LLG included West Pomio/Mamusi, Melkoe and Sinivit.
Fresh Produce Development Agency recently supplied a tonne of generation one seed bags (30 bags) that had already covered two hectares of land.
Despite a lack of a road network and need to sea freight all cargo, the agency was determined to bring the crop mostly grown in Highlands to the coastal areas where it could grow well.
