Notes
Positive changes in diet have been reported by a programme addressing vitamin A deficiencies, a major health problem in Kiribati and Tuvalu. The Pacific Regional Agricultural Project (PRAP) has noted a change of attitude towards vegetables over the past five years. To promote the inclusion of vegetables in the national diet, the project helped set up family plots for growing root crops and green vegetables.
