| description | Restructuring the way Fiji’s agricultural sector operates has allowed the Fiji Crop and Livestock Council (FCLC) to build a database of its farmers, and to focus on a plan to empower them through technological innovations.

The app is helping farmers to increase their productivity and profitability. Despite these benefits, however, maintaining the mobile technology has its challenges. |
