GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – A senior official of the Netherlands-based Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Development (CTA) says developing countries could benefit from duplicating the format used by the Caribbean Week of Agriculture (CWA) to discuss the development of the sector.
“I think this is the only region where there is a specific week every year dedicated to bring the key stakeholders dealing with agriculture together. So we want to encourage other regions to do the same”, CTA director Michael Hailu told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC).
He said the meeting allows also for the participation of the region’s agriculture ministers and that on this occasion they had been joined by their counterparts from the Pacific Islands.
