dc.description.abstract | This Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report is an evaluation of the potential environmental, socio-economic and natural impacts of the proposal for an agricultural development at the island of Fenfuraaveli in Meemu Atoll.
The purpose of the project is to develop Fenfuraaveli as an agricultural island with the aim of boosting the agricultural output of the country by providing fresh and organic produce to neighbouring islands and resorts. The project also aims to increase employment opportunities for locals. The MDP Alliance Manifesto (2008-2013) stipulates “expand the use of technology, such as hydroponics in the agricultural sector to help develop and diversify the sector”. M. Fenfuraaveli was leased during President Nasheed’s presidency by the National Planning Council. Several islands were leased for such projects by the Government of Maldives with the aim of increasing agricultural productivity within the country and decreasing import of produce. The project aims to develop the island mainly for hydroponics and cultivation with the inclusion of a poultry farm. | en_US |
