‘Jagdeo Initiative’ remains in place – Agriculture Ministers

Oct 14, 2013

GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has not abandoned the Jagdeo Initiative on Agriculture, but has been disappointingly slow in its implementation, said regional Ministers of Agriculture on Friday.
In 2003, the Jagdeo initiative, named for former President of Guyana, Bharrat Jagdeo, identified and defined the key constraints facing agricultural development in the Caribbean .
The initiative has been endorsed throughout CARICOM for its thorough analysis of the state of agriculture, its hard look at internal and external factors and for deepening the discussion of fundamental areas that need improvement, reform and/or initiation.
