REVIEW OF THE POTENTIAL FOR CUT FLOWERS AND FOLIAGE EXPORTS FROM VANUATU TO AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND

This feasibility study was intended to identify species and varieties that have good prospects for commercial success, as the basis for selecting one or two floriculture products for which production and marketing pathways can be developed. Consideration of potential species and varieties was limited to items for which market access procedures are already in place, or for which there are good chances of being able to develop market access arrangements.
