Subic firm inks agreement with Cotabato-based college
SUBIC BAY FREEPORT–A memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed by the Cotabato Foundation College of Science and Technology (CFCST) and GrainPro Phils, Inc. that will develop and enhance the agricultural potential of Arakan Valley Complex in the province of Cotabato.
The signing was made by CFCST president Dr. Samson Molao and GrainPro vice president for sales Dr. Jose Gomos at the GrainPro building inside the Subic Bay Industrial Park (SBIP) here.
In the MOU, both the CFCST and GrainPro plan to establish the “Arakan Valley Grain Keep Center, Inc.” that will serve as a postharvest center and agricultural processing facility that will handle all grains produced in the region.
The joint venture, according to a Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) official, will further enhance the country’s sustainability by ensuring that crops and seedlings maintain high quality.
He also pointed out that food security, especially in the Cotabato province, will suffice despite the two kinds of weather the region experiences in which he jokingly described as “wet and wetter.”
Molao said that with the technology and equipment GrainPro has, the ratio of grain spoilage will drastically be reduced and safekeeping of seedlings will take longer than the usual time when using conventional methods.
The Cotabato college has an assigned land reservation covering the whole of Arakan Valley Complex. The reservation encompasses five municipalities and 132 barangays.
The college recently received a grant from President Benigno Aquino’s social fund to pursue agricultural development projects to discover and learn new farming knowledge beneficial to the community.
The college engaged GrainPro for its post-harvest expertise and revolutionary products.
The American company was founded in Concord, Massachusetts in 1992 and its products are principally manufactured at its wholly owned subsidiary, GrainPro Philippines Inc. here in Subic Bay Freeport since 2007.
GrainPro products are being used worldwide, particularly in hot and humid climates, as a safe, cost-effective solar drying, and airtight storage.
As a result of the commercial activities, the proposed grain keep center will also be a venue for education for CFCST students and further study in turning Arakan Valley into an organic farming area. ●Butch Gunio
