My last project was about the introduction of macadamia farming in my home area which is actually known for citrus farming e.g. mangoes and oranges. I actually realized that Macadamia farming only does well in areas that coffee is grown. The leading macadamia exporter in the world are now in research to introduce seedlings for my home area type of soil and climate. I actually did plant some seedlings last week and it's been ok for now. Also HASS AVOCADO farming has started bearing fruit with farmers getting some income.
