PRESIDENT Jioji Konrote has urged all Fijians to eat healthy and live a healthy lifestyle.
In launching World Food Day in Savusavu on Vanua Levu today, Mr Konrote again pleaded with parents to feed their children fresh healthy meals.
“We have moved away from traditional eating habits preparing fresh healthy meals at home,” he said.
“Our children need to eat the right food and acquiring a healthier lifestyle at a young age results in better health.”
Mr Konrote also launched the release of two new rice varieties known as Sitara and Cagivou rice, which contains a higher yield and nutrition.
