Emosi Cagi, POLFN’s Country Coordinator in Fiji, was on the radio to talk about the project

The POLFN project is making significant strides in promoting organic farming across #Tonga, #Fiji, the #Solomon Islands, and #Nauru.

Emosi Cagi, POLFN's country coordinator in Fiji, recently shared insights on Gold Fiji FM about the project's four major components:

1. Establishing organic learning farms in the #Pacific
2. Recruiting 100 farmers to adopt #organic farming methodologies
3. Developing #market mechanisms to bridge agricultural production and business
4. Facilitating knowledge #exchange through farmer-to-farmer reviews

Market access remains a #challenge for Fijian farmers transitioning to organic farming. By leveraging the POLFN farming network, #farmers gain consistency and reliability in production, crucial for establishing long-term #business relationships.

Currently, 75 members, including 31 farms in Fiji, are registered with the POETcom network across the Pacific region.

Organic farming not only revitalizes #traditional #practices but also fosters #healthier #environments and #communities by eliminating the use of pesticides and insecticides.
