dc.descriptionJamaica has a long history of ginger cultivation, known worldwide for its distinctive flavor and aroma. Despite favorable growing conditions, the sector faces major challenges, including fragmented small-scale farming, limited access to quality planting material, weak coordination, and the spread of rhizome rot disease. These factors have reduced yields and affected both local and export markets. In response, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Mining, through the Jamaica Agricultural Commodities Regulatory Authority and with FAO support, is implementing the One Country One Product initiative to strengthen coordination, develop a sector strategy, and build producer capacity in sustainable practices and disease management.
