From , 5:00 am on 16 September 2016

Members of a regional farmers network are gathering in Tonga this week for the first Pacific Breadfruit Roundtable conference.

The attending members of the Pacific Island Farmers Organisation Network include researchers and farmers from the Solomon Islands, Cook Islands, Fiji and Tonga.

The conference will include consultations on how to develop breadfruit farming around the region.

Sinai Tuitahi is the CEO of the Growers Federation of Tonga and says the conference will provide great opportunities for farmers to share their knowledge and practices.
