MTSP Quotes - Day 1

E-mail Print PDF

There is a crisis of implementation.  Most of what has been put in place - even if it is right or wrong – has not been implemented.

Barton Clarke

“Agriculture is not a sectoral responsibility it is a national responsibility”  Arlington Chesney

 

 
 
 
 
What we are trying to do in a network like this is to democratize that process by being inclusive and being faithful to a set of principles that it is on the basis on knowledge and information that we are going to anchor the way policy is developed.
  Winston Rudder

“The sharing of information is critical if policy is to happen.”  Diane Francis

 

 
 
 
 
Agriculture is very strategic in terms of raising the standard of a large population. Agriculture has not been given equal ranking as it relates to services.
  Norman Girvan

“OECS is moving away from agriculture to Tourism”  Naitran Ramnanan, Trinidad

 

 
 
 
 
Mobilization of investment in Agriculture is critical, examine the challenges, and seek replacement of the aging generations, with more educated and younger farmers
  Ashley Caines, St Vincent

“...Harmonize the efforts to drive policies”  Jedidiah Maxime, Antigua

CaRAPN - What it Is, What it Isn't

Dear readers
 
By now, some of you would have received notification of a strategic planning workshop to define the way forward for CaRAPN in the medium term. Just to clarify, CaRAPN – the Caribbean Regional Agricultural Policy Network – is not an agency; it is not an organization; it is not an NGO; it is not an association. In other words, CaRAPN is not an entity of itself, but an open community for any and all stakeholders in agriculture and rural development in the Caribbean to communicate, share ideas, experiences and information for the benefit of all.
