Abstract

With rising input costs, dairy farmers in Fiji have been calling for more government support. Using primary survey data, we examine dairy farming's cost structure and profitability. The results indicate high returns in the industry-suggesting the removal of existing subsidies-but point to the need for other forms of government assistance.
