DARPO-CAGAYAN is truly living up to its mandate of uplifting the lives of farmer-beneficiaries. Another breakthrough in the lives of Cagayan farmers, as DAR distributed farm supply and farm inputs to 5 Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Organizations (ARBOs). Salamin Multi-Purpose Cooperative (SMPC) of Tuao, Rang-ay ti Pussian MPC at Alcala, MBG Farmers Irrigators Credit Cooperative of Rizal, Lasvinag MPC of Gattaran and Payagan Farmers Credit Cooperative at Ballesteros, each received 101 bags of hybrid seeds (rice and corn) and organic fertilizers under Climate Resilient Farm Productivity Support – Sustainable Livelihood Project/Enterprise (CRFPS-SLP/E) program of DAR worth P1,350,000.00. CRFPS-SLP/E project aims to minimize the adverse effect of climate change in agrarian reform communities thus helping farmers/ARBs to become resilient. The project could also be a starting kit to establish an agri-enterprise for the recipient ARBOs.
“We are so grateful that DAR has been always there to support us from land distribution to support services. DAR never failed to provide our needs, a total package of intervention which differentiates DAR from other national government agencies,” said William Olang of Salamin MPC, Tuao. MARVI T.
