With the imminent closing of the last sugar plantation on Maui, large-scale agriculture in Hawaii may soon become a distant memory - unless we work together to ensure that our aina is used productively.

Dr. Keli'i Akina, President and CEO of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii, will give a presentation showing that 540,000 acres of crop and pastureland has been lost since 1980, and what we can do about it.

Mayor Alan Arakawa and Councilwoman Elle Cochran will give introductory talks, as we work together to find a path forward for agriculture on Maui.
