dc.description.abstract | Pacific Agribusiness Research for Development Initiative (AGB/2014/057) PARDI-21 has made a significant contribution to agribusiness awareness and capacity in Fiji and Vanuatu (specifically in the agritourism, honey and tilapia industries). We have delivered impact in individual Pacific agribusiness enterprises and industry associations, as well as helped shape and reform enabling national policies. PARDI-2 was designed around three core objectives: (1) develop tools and resources to document and communicate agribusiness best practice, (2) identify and enable chains of selected Pacific agribusiness; and (3) provide relevant agribusiness capacity building. Based on value chain reviews, the project initially prioritised 12 potential industries2, for agribusiness support, across three Pacific Island countries (Fiji, Vanuatu and Tonga). In Oct 2019, a mid-term review necessitated a significant project re-design aimed at introducing a more focused approach and an increased emphasis on the impact pathway. In early 2021, additional agribusiness expertise was incorporated into the project team, and a rapid review undertaken to further prioritise agribusiness industry/enterprises and identify possible interventions with an impact pathway. As a result, PARDI-2 was further refined around three core agribusiness industries: 1. Agritourism (Fiji and Vanuatu) 2. Honey (Fiji) 3. Tilapia (Fiji) | |
