Implementing Sustainable Agricultural Practices

Project: Transition to a sustainable farming system within the settlement of Natuvu Naba Rua, Taveuni Island.

Aims: To establish a sustainable farming program to allow indigenous farmers to enhance and sustain their income from their land whilst maintaining traditional methods through better understanding of soil, water, resource management, all within the framework of Conservation Agriculture practices using intermediate technology.

Natural Spring Water Bottling Enterprise
