15 three times a year for the first four years is necessary to provide favorable conditions for the earliest productivity. Adequate care and fertilization will enable seedlings to grow beyond the dangers of later encroachment by the wild vegetation. Subsistence crops of breadfruit, pandanus, dwarf coconuts should also be planted at this time along the lagoon shore, roadways and village sites. Breadfruit varieties of bukdrol, betaktak, mejwan and metetet should be included in the plant- ings to take advantage of the diversity in fruit types as well as the extension of the fruiting season to which each variety exhibits an early or late bearing habit. Dwarf coconuts as a good source for toddy (Jjakaru) and drinking nuts in addition to an aesthetic value as landscape plants will also replace tall coconuts as a drinking nut source to fully utulize the tall trees for copra production. The many varieties of edible pandanus should also be planted throughout the village sites. In time other crops such as anana, papaya, limes, and the hardier vegetables should be planted. As the atoll becomes suitable for human habitation and the coconuts are in their early stages of bearing, copra driers (small Marshallese types) should be provided to all copra pro- ducers as a measure to process high-quality copra for,as is common throughout the Marshalls, lack of adequate types of copra Griers leads to copra of inferior quality.
