Citrus grafting

Citrus grafting training for Vanuatu’s North Efate farmers

Over 20 key men and women farmers in Paunangisu and Eton villages had the opportunity to learn how to plant citrus trees and increase production, especially Tahitian lime as the future looks bright in terms of market opportunity.

The citrus grafting training was facilitated by DARD’s Fruit and Spices Officer, Fernand Massing, assisted by AAO Keith Amos.

The training included theory and practical sessions.

Most of the famers who attended the training have engaged in planting Tahitian lime and others were interested to start planting.
