Chief Technical Director in the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries, Monique Gibbs (second left), pays keen attention to information on the Frosty Pod Rot of Cocoa Disease provided by Senior Plant Protection Officer, Patrice Pitter (left), while on a tour of the Bodles Research Station in Old Harbour, St. Catherine on November 15. Others from third right are Owner and President of Essential Energy Solutions, Dan Stachofsky, Organic Agriculture Consultant with Essential Energy, Markus Braun, and Principal Research Director in the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries, Dr. Lisa Myers Morgan. Essential Energy Solutions, through its trade name, Geofield Systems, is seeking to collaborate with Jamaica to use technology that neutralizes the effects of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) in the environment, which stunts the growth of crops. Geofield’s pioneering technology will therefore boost crop production by eliminating EMR.
Welcome to the official website of the Ministry of Industry, Investment and Commerce.
The Ministry of Industry, Investment and Commerce is described as Jamaica's "Business Ministry." It's mandate is to lead the development of policies that will create growth and jobs, while achieving social inclusion and consumer protection. The Ministry, working its stakeholders is primarily responsible for business policy development, monitoring and evaluation, while giving direction and oversight to a cluster of implementing departments and agencies.
We have, therefore, placed much energy and enthusiasm into the development of this website to provide timely information on the Ministry, our agencies and programmes.
