This year ICT was able to obtain funding to begin an agri-development project, which will move Dikkelle even closer to self-sufficiency. Before MVP began to implement the agricultural project, it commissioned a feasibility study, which was conducted by the Agricultural Land Management and Consultancy Service. The study examined the land conditions at MVP and concluded that if MVP cultivates fruits, vegetables and even orchids on its lands, Dikkelle cannot only become self sufficient in terms of its food needs, but if fully funded and implemented over the next three years, the entire programme of health and educational needs at Dikkelle can be covered by income generated from sale of surplus fruits and vegetables locally and nationally and the sale of orchids nationally and on the world market. ICT is very keen to support a project that could eventually mean self-sufficiency for one of its long-term strategic partners.
