Dear all
As part of the _5-DAY TRAINING [1]_ programme on _TACKLING CLIMATE
CHANGE IN AGRICULTURE [2]_ which is being implemented by CCARDESA and
the University of Mauritius, the participants went on an excursion to
Plaine Magnien. Here they are hosted by the Skills and Entrepreneurship
Development Programme for Educated Youths. The programme is a new
initiative, started in early 2018, by the Ministry of Agro-Industry and
Food Security. It aims at modernisation of the local food crop
production subsector as well as promotion of sustainable farming
practices especially among younger segments of the population. It
comprises the setting up of a sheltered farming park on State Land at
Plaine Magnien in the District of Grand Port. The park is intended to
provide facilities for the promotion of sheltered farming systems aimed
at Mauritian youths who get one year of support to establish a
successful farming business.
