The IICA-Jamaica Office, within its financial limitations, achieved its target for the 1992 - 1993 Biennium. Progress was made with continuing projects and a number of new ones were initiated. Activities were largely in the broad areas of: technology generation and transfer; and organization and management for rural development. Continuing support was provided for national MINAG programs in Agricultural Extension under RADA, and Agricultural Research and Development under the Agricultural Research and Development Division (ARDD).
