This assessment has identified several potential entry points for increasing the sustainability of Jamaica’s food systems. These entry points underscore the need for increased collaboration between various actors in Jamaica’s food systems as well as different government sectors to provide leadership and an enabling policy environment. Identified entry points are:

1. Support for innovative educational awareness campaigns for healthy food habits, local biodiverse foods and child nutrition at the community level; increasing nutritional knowledge of the general population through public health services.

2. Drafting and implementation of policy and regulation on food labelling for all food products sold in Jamaica. The establishment and implementation of policies and regulations would require manufacturers and retailers to provide adequate, accurate, and legible nutritional labelling that clearly displays the ingredients and nutritional information of the product.

3. Strengthening access to land and capital for smallholder producers.

4. Facilitating agricultural infrastructure development.

5. Establishing flexible credit for smallholder farmers and MSMEs, especially women and youth.

6. Facilitating capacity development training, mentorship, incubation and networking opportunities, especially for women and youth.

7. Policies to encourage smallholder producers to implement climate-smart adaptation technologies.

8. Capacity development of smallholder producers and agricultural support services.
