As a result of a national shortage in the local supply of kava, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Vanuatu is carrying out a nationwide kava restocking program.
Kava is a major export commodity in Vanuatu and the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) is aiming to set up kava nurseries at provincial levels and farms to boost kava production.
Director of Agriculture and Rural Development, Antoine Ravo says the department is spreading awareness to help them produce more.
