Young Farmers Upskilled

This was made possible through Santos’ partnership with the Fresh Produce Development Agency (FPDA) and the PNG Mining & Petroleum Hospitality Services (PNGMPHS).

Over sixty youths in Pimaga have come together to form the Daga Youth Group, comprising their mothers and fathers.

FPDA worked with and trained young farmers and their families to increase their capacity to produce high-quality organic vegetables. The training included soil preparation, composting, natural pesticides and how to grow, transplant and maintain healthy crops.
