| dc.description.abstract | The Marshall Islands, once self sufficient in food production, have become dependent on imported foods. In addition to the economic problems created by this situation, the Marshallese people suffer a high incidence of malnutrition and diet-related diseases. In an effort to address these problems, the Ministry of R&D, Agriculture Division has developed its Replanting for Self-Reliance Program with the following goals: • Promote opportunities for increased production of basic staple crops. • Promote higher yielding varieties of root crops and improved fruit tree varieties. • Provide training and technical assistance in the crop scheme. | en |
