IICA's Direct Technical Cooperation in Barbados

The Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) in Barbados collaborated with agrotourism and safety through training and workshops funded by entities such as the Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA) and Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. It also strengthened the beekeeping industry through the creation of a reference study and preparation of manuals for beekeeping and carried out the APICARIBE triangular cooperation project which facilitated diagnoses, training and recommendations for the national beekeeping sector. The Institute established an artificial insemination laboratory at the Greenland Livestock Research Station and consolidated its actions in technology and innovation by supporting agricultural sectors and promoting agri-food digitalization through the Agripoint website.
