dcterms.descriptionThe Flagaman Agricultural Information Centre was formed by the onion farmers of Flagaman St Elizabeth. Their business was virtually wiped out in 1987 when cheap imports flooded the local market, and total acreage fell from 800 acres in 1996 to zero in 1999. In response, they formed the St Elizabeth/Manchester Vegetable Growers´ Association to bring some order to vegetable production and to lobby the government for assistance. The Association opened the web-based Flagaman Agricultural Information Centre in 2001.en
