(MOA Basseterre, St. Kitts, 04 October 2024): The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Marine Resources in St. Kitts is pleased to announce a series of important consultations this month, designed specifically for the island’s crop and livestock farmers. These sessions will take place in the Large Conference Room of the Department of Agriculture, offering a vital opportunity for farmers to enhance their understanding of agricultural insurance.

The consultations are scheduled as follows:

Crops Farmers: Wednesday, 30th October

These sessions are tailored to address the unique challenges faced by farmers in the federation, particularly in light of the unpredictable nature of agricultural production.
