Prime Minister Gaston Browne has outlined projects involving storage facilities, an abattoir and water infrastructure as part of efforts to strengthen Antigua and Barbuda’s food supply.
These areas are important to local agricultural development. Better storage can help reduce post-harvest losses, while an abattoir can support the processing of locally raised livestock. Reliable water supplies are also essential for farmers who depend on irrigation and consistent access to water for their operations.
The projects form part of a broader discussion about improving domestic production and reducing vulnerability to imported food.
