Caribbean Week of Agriculture Observed in the Bahamas

The Caribbean Week of Agriculture 2023 opened with a resounding call to accelerate and consolidate efforts to reduce the region’s dependence on food imports, an objective towards which the region has already made significant progress.

The four-day event, which is currently underway in Nassau, Bahamas, brings together decision makers from the public and private sectors as well as experts, representatives of international agencies, and agricultural producers.

The theme of this edition of the Caribbean Week of Agriculture is “Accelerating Vision 25 by 2025”, which makes reference to the objective established by the region in 2018 to reduce food imports 25% by 2025. Despite the issues generated by the Covid-19 pandemic, the region has made significant progress towards achieving that goal.
