As a result, officials are setting lower targets for the upcoming harvest. 

“We will be using around 48,000 acres [80 percent of total acreage] for cultivation this season [in Kilinochchi District],” said district official, Roopavathi Ketheeswaran.

Given Vanni’s low population density - 70 people per square kilometre - and the dependence on agriculture for food and livelihoods, agriculture can help kick-start the regional economy, Sarvananthan said.

The little private investment there is, favours industry, he added. Several garment factories are set to open in the districts of Jaffna and Vavuniya. Ketheswaran said initial plans have been drafted to open a garment factory with private sector funding in Kilinochchi.

While the return to Vanni of more than 200,000 people fleeing fighting since December 2009 has brought with it rapid improvements to the road network, poor telecommunications and intermittent power supplies in the region are driving away potential investors, Saravananthan said.
