Coffee Production
La Gonave could produce a few different crops on a large production scale, which would hire many people in the process. While farming is normally looked at as a small profit industry, it serves a few purposes. It employs people of La Gonave, programs will help to fertilize farm soil in a natural way, the island brings in profit, and it creates a stable economy for the island.
Coffee could hold promise in the near future. There is currently a mid sized Haitian company that we are in talks with about coffee production on the island. This offers farmers on La Gonave the chance to raise coffee beans. This company sells coffee to big box American retailer Wal-mart. The opportunity to put La Gonave on the map is happening in many different ways.
Currently ideas are to have honey production, coffee production, Moringa, and wax production. Other crops considered strongly are Sunn Hemp, which will provide potential biomass for the island as well as "green fertilizer" for farms on the island.
This could be a major windfall for La Gonave, and 2015 could be a big year.
Go Gonave!
