Vilma Da Silva

Months after Pomeroon farmers faced the worst flooding they have ever seen, Regional Chairman of Region Two, Vilma Da Silva, said while they are returning to their farms, the region is working to implement the necessary infrastructure to mitigate such a reoccurrence.

She explained that with support from the Ministry of Agriculture they have been empoldering farmlands and creating additional drainage between farms.
