dc.descriptionThe official policy statements of many national governments in the Pacific accord a central role to the intensification and commercialisation of smallholder agriculture as a means of stimulating the rural economy and alleviating poverty. Axiomatic to this stance is the belief that smallholder agriculture is uniquely positioned to deliver broad-based growth in rural areas. But the countries in the region face some immovable constraints to developing agricultural market driven economie s, including their smallness (lack of economies of scale), geography (fragmentation and distance from major markets), and vulnerability to natural disasters.
