AGP Executive Report

Last update: 30 minutes ago

Agriculture & Food Security: IICA’s new technical specialist, Rohan McDonald, met SVG’s Agriculture and Fisheries ministers to deepen support for farmers and fishers and strengthen rural development. Carrot Trials: The Agriculture Ministry and CARDI are evaluating five carrot varieties in Majorca Mountain, backed by an EU-funded ITC project aimed at cutting the food import bill and improving rural incomes. Poultry Upgrade: Twenty poultry farmers received nesting boxes under a CDB-funded pilot to boost egg quality and food safety, with veterinary guidance on biosecurity. Fisheries Planning: Enumerators are collecting data for the 2026 Agriculture and Fisheries Census (through Oct. 30) to guide fisheries sector planning, funded by the World Bank. Digital Skills: OECS’s Advanced Digital Skills Scholarship opens Sept. 10 (to Sept. 20) via CARDTP and UWI Global Campus, offering certifications in areas like AI, cloud, cybersecurity, and data analytics. Public Finance & AI: PM Godwin Friday urged Caribbean governments to pursue “digital by design” for public financial management, warning against AI hype and digitising weak systems. Environment & Coastal Use: Environmentalists are again raising alarms over mangrove destruction at Canash, while murals are being installed along the Villa/Calliaqua coastal stretch. Transport & Roads: A planned minibus strike in Central Kingstown was averted after BRAGSA road repairs began in Green Hill. Maritime Security: Pirates seized an SVG-flagged tanker in the Gulf of Aden before releasing it after a Japanese warship response; separate reports also flag a hijacking incident involving an SVG-registered bulker.
