NZPA Staff Correspondent Colombo The Auckland-based agriculture consultancy firm, Anzdec, landed the first contract on the South Asia trade mission when it signed a SNZSOO,OOO contract in Colombo, said the Minister of Overseas Trade, Mr Moore. The 14-year-old firm had fought off world competition to secure the fivemonth contract funded by the Asian Development
Bank to give the Sri Lankan Government technical advice on how the island republic can keep up its agricultural output. The study will report on ways Sri Lanka can intensify, diversify, and sustain intensive crop production.
Mr Moore said Anzdec’s general manager, Mr Brian Hedley, was now in Colombo making arrangements to mobilise the sixmember team of consultants who would work on the project. Most would come from New Zealand.
