Sustainable Kava Cultivation, Pacific BioScapes Programme - Fiji

 Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP)
 Land  Culture and Heritage  Biodiversity

The rapid expansion of kava farms, and the increase in market value for the plant, has resulted in an increased clearing of native forests in key growing zones. Cleared cultivation areas are now penetrating some of the most well preserved native forests of the Pacific region. To what extent this is currently impacting on biodiversity and Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) is not yet fully known, especially in Fiji and Vanuatu.
