YAP STATE GOVERNMENT • The Agriculture Sector perceives itself as not being supported. The sector perceives itself as not being a priority in budget terms. • There is no explicit Agriculture Policy established by the local Government. [Secretariat Note: The effects of the yet to be approved National Agriculture Policy still have to be produced, however there is a need of a more specific and rooted local planning.] Recommendations were made to support the achievement of the Goal: • A cooperative of farmers should be created. • The sector perceives as a necessity looking at extra source of funding to complement the perceived lack of budget support.

Recommendations were made to support the achievement of the Goal: • A consumption survey has been recommended to determine the level of consumption of local versus imported food. 27 | P a g e
