Best Answer

The shield on the Fijian flag is from the Fijian Coat of Arms. The heraldic lion across the top is holding a cocoa pod. Fiji used to have a thriving cocoa industry. The top left hand quarter of the shield depicts sugar cane, the top right shows a coconut palm, the lower right holds a bunch of bananas. All of these feature significantly in Fiji's agricultural industry. In the lower left is a dove of peace.
