AGRI DEPT. READIES LOANS, FOOD AID
FOR LANAO FARMERS, FISHER FOLKS
By Manny Piñol
Yesterday, I directed all the regional offices of the DAF in Mindanao to start milling rice seeds with low germination rate so that rice could be distributed to the farming and fisher folk families displaced by the conflict.
A poultry company based in Davao City, Anas Breeder Farm, which is now producing canned ready-to-eat rice with chicken afrida or adobo has pledged to produce enough volume to be able to provide the Halal food to the evacuees who belong to the farming and the fishing sectors.
