GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – Dominica’s Minister of Agriculture, Matthew Walter has urged regional Governments to modernise agriculture within the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).

“And we need to send that message to our respective governments that agriculture must be put on the front burner,” he said after a meeting of the Council on Trade and Economic Development (COTED).
