This landmark gift may well signal a turning point for a brand new industry in the Nature Isle.<\/p>\n<p>Reaction was instantaneous. Some farmers could not wait to get their hands on the precious plants while contributing nothing to the process. Wait a minute\u2026 Already, Dominica is demanding donors now pay for ordinary pots for transplantation, which are widely available on island. Meanwhile, naysayers complain that we have a lot of our own breadfruit, so why bring in more. On social media, critics rail against the introduction of genetically modified organisms (GMO\u2019s) into the island. Shockingly, they worry these new breadfruit varieties may cause cancer and fear it is some scheme to damage our agriculture like Black sigatoka.<\/p>\n<p>Well, absolutely nothing could be further from the truth. SMH. First of all, the plants are in no way genetically modified anymore than someone wanting the fierce guard dog may opt for a pitbull. It is not genetically modified, just a different breed. So these breadfruit plants are natural breeds carefully selected for the desired purpose. Secondly, the plants are produced by tissue culture, which uses the best available technology to ensure the plants are free from harmful bacteria or viruses.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_144260\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-144260\" style=\"width: 642px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-144260\" src=\"http:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Breadfruit-expert-642x396.png\" alt=\"Expert in short breadfruit varieties and satisfied farmer\" width=\"642\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Breadfruit-expert-642x396.png 642w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Breadfruit-expert-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Breadfruit-expert.png 712w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-144260\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Expert in short breadfruit varieties and satisfied farmer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Superfood<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After generations of branding breadfruit as slave food and poor people\u2019s food, suddenly today it is touted as a superfruit with all these health benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Farmer and agro-processor, Pastor Adrien Bannis and Leslie Shillingford, who attended a recent international conference on breadfruit, outlined the latest findings. Breadfruit is rich in fiber. This helps ward off cancer-causing chemicals from the colon while reducing blood cholesterol and obesity. It is an excellent source of potassium and reduces blood pressure. It possesses antioxidant properties, has more vitamin C than bananas and is a good source of B complex vitamins and minerals. Its complex carbohydrates have a lower glycemic index than much in our staple diet. Therefore, more breadfruit will help reduce the devastating epidemic of diabetes and chronic non-communicable diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Most Dominicans today only know about yampere woti, cooked or fried. The day is coming when breadfruit flour will replace a significant portion of flour imported for baking, chips and French fries. The tree will be short so anyone can pick it by hand while standing on the ground! You won\u2019t have to joogooloo it with a long bamboo and damage the fruit when it falls from a height. We are talking about production scale of a cash crop. Like Garvey\u2019s son, I am completely sold on the product. So much so, it\u2019s been years since I\u2019ve enjoyed a good tor-tor. I am desperate to buy a mortar pestle, so help me if you can!<\/p>\n<p><strong>History in the Making<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What makes this development especially interesting is its amazing historical perspective. A hundred years ago, Jamaican-born, the Honourable Marcus Garvey, arguably meant more to the African diaspora than Mandella or Martin Luther King in their time. His Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) founded the Black Star shipping line to expand trade among black countries. His ideas resonated with progressive Dominicans such that Ralph Casimir invited him to an unprecedented visit to our island. The supreme irony is that today his son, New York heart surgeon Dr. Julius Garvey, is the one making the donation to Dominica in the name of regional food security.<\/p>\n<p>In more ways than one, we are coming full circle. Over 200 years ago, Captain Bligh was tasked with bringing the breadfruit from Tahiti to the Caribbean. His crew just could not grasp the importance of those plants so they subjected him to a \u201cMutiny on the Bounty\u201d and set him adrift to die. He survived, the mutineers faced stiff justice and Bligh later completed his mission. In the face of great adversity, Captain Bligh personified Admiral Nelson\u2019s order, \u201cBritain expects every man to do his duty.\u201d An educated person should not be unfamiliar with this riveting story. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=od03l5hFP7k\">Click here for the video<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Caribbean Agricultural Network, brainchild of Maryland attorney Gabriel Christian and CEO Francis Richards, deserves full credit for bringing this to pass. Director of Operations Errol Emanuel and his distinguished team members on island have devoted countless hours of legwork and logistical planning. Prime Minister Skerrit and the Ministry of Agriculture have been outstanding in facilitating the whole process. But much work needs to be done before we can see the concrete rewards to our nation.<\/p>\n<p>In a relay race, when they pass you the baton, you have to seize it firmly &#8211; and press the gas! No team ever won if one member fails to run, no matter how far ahead they might be. Captain Bligh did his duty. So did Marcus Garvey and his son, the doctor. Now it\u2019s our turn. So let us begin by better saying a heartfelt thank you to those who have gotten us to where we are today. Let us digest the full impact of these plants and play our part in finally making this dream come true.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Sam Christian is surgeon who runs the Urgent Care on 137 Bath Road.
