Jaggery, an alternative to sugar is to undergo a two year trial project in the country.
Fiji National University Vice Chancellor Dr Ganesh Chand said they will begin implementing the jaggery project from this year with five sets of equipment coming from India to be located at different locations.
He added if the trial period is highly successful they hope the private sector will then take it up and setup jaggery plants.
