The Fresh Produce Development Agency (FPDA) has increased investments in bulb onion production and extended training of onion growers in the Western Highlands of Papua New Guinea.
At Kelta community, FPDA officers learnt that bulb onions were being grown without any technical support. Since then, FPDA extension advisors, who have been managing potato farmers in the same area, brought bulb onions into their program.
According to an article on looppng.com¸ the current Marape-led government has prioritized agriculture as a major revenue earner for the country.
