Abstract
Prior to the 1970s, parish farmers
predominantly produced traditional vegetable crops for home
consumption. At that time local farmers did not produce
exotic vegetables, such as cabbages, carrots, lettuce, etc.
which were produced on plantations and mainly consumed by
the European and Asian populations, or exported. The
vegetables that the rural African population produced for
consumption as local foodstuff were considered traditional vegetables.
