Approved for Release, Office of Member for Bulolo- Hon. Sam Basil Jr.
BULOLO District today signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Coffee Industry Corporation through the Minister for Coffee Hon William Bando.
Through this signing, we hope to increase coffee production in Bulolo and empower all our small farmers in technical and skills capacity.Â
The aim is to increase coffee quality and maintain good production output.
The Bulolo District has been starting with coffee nursery in Mumeng LLG area and we will move to the other LLG.
Further with technical advice from CIC, we intend to set up the District coffee mill.
This process will contribute significantly to the overall economic performance of Bulolo District and PNG as a whole for many years to come.
The Bulolo District intends to offer coffee curriculum at the Bulolo Technical School with technical support from CIC and Department of Education.
Our biggest opportunity is for our farmers to start planting the seeds and to continue maintaining our coffee so that we will take our own coffee.
