Mushroom and Lavender farms
Gonave can start building a strong farm presence as well as build a strong economy by producing high priced goods. Oyster Mushrooms can fetch a very high price for a small amount of goods. Lavender can be used in many different types of products, all bringing large profits.
Oyster Mushrooms
These mushrooms grow very fast, and can be cropped every week. Just a small 200 sq ft area can produce 100 pounds per week. Given that these mushrooms can fetch $6 to $15 per pound, oyster mushrooms can be a very viable product for Gonave given Gonave's small land size.
Lavender
These plants like land that is rugged, and after their first year, they can survive getting little moisture. From fresh to dried bouquets, to sachets and pet products, lavender can also bring in large amounts of money as well as jobs. Again a small area of 400 sq ft can make 300 bunches per year. Given that lavender can fetch $6 per bunch, expect $1,800 per year on that small 400 sq ft space.
Gonave needs to have different types of jobs to be successful. With honey farms, oyster, lavender, etc, Gonave can make many different products from just one basic crop. Even raising salmon can produce a lower price caviar as well as provide meat. These are smart ideas, that can provide good paying jobs, which will set Gonave apart from every place in the Caribbean.
Also both of these crops as well as honey farms require very little money, time, and water. Work smarter not harder!
Go Gonave!
