Welcome to the Web site of Cristina Manutomatoma, an agriculturist of Easter Island, pioneering in the development of permanent cultures within the Island. In addition, Cristina is a craftswoman - a member of a family of great craftsmen.   Cristina is successfully becoming a new landmark in the agricultural operations of Easter Island, the most isolated place on the planet, a volcanic island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. She is transforming the traditional agricultural operations of the Island from that of  temporary into permanet cultivation.    Her success  has been possible with the support that the Municipality of Easter Island is offering to the Island's farmers, through the office of Science and Technology. Their objective is to help the island become self-supplying -  growing more than 30 horticultural products,  emphasizing the introduction of the  Maradol Papaya  with anticipated yields of 100,000 kg per cultivated hectar.
