818 farmers graduate in Pampanga Field School
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – The Farmers’ Field School (FFS) in Pampanga has produced 818 graduates on Wednesday as the provincial government stepped up programs to improve agricultural production.
Gov. Lilia Pineda and officials from the Department of Agriculture (DA) and Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) graced the mass graduation of farmers from the towns of San Luis, Magalang, Porac, Bacolor, Floridablanca, Mexico, Guagua and Lubao and Mabalacat City.
DA-Central Luzon Administrative Director Rleen Torres, who represented DA regional director Andrew Villacorta, congratulated the graduates and reiterated their agency’s commitment to advance the knowledge and capabilities of Pampanga farmers.
With the assistance of Agricultural Training Institute (ATI), Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) and Office of the Provincial Agriculturist (OPA), the FFS graduates studied from June 2012 to March 2013 the latest and modern techniques on planting rice, corn, vegetables and high-value crops.
The FFS allowed the farmers coming from 28 barangays to have “hands-on training.” The program encouraged organic farming.
The FFS also touched on Small Scale Irrigation System (SSIS).
In her speech, Pineda lauded the government agencies for their continued support in helping improve the production of the some 32,000 farmers in Pampanga. She added that she will focus more on agriculture if she gets a second term as governor.
Ramon Estanislao, head of the DA office in Pampanga, said there is crops’ insurance to be offered for farmers. He stressed the importance of the insurance as Pampanga “is also affected by climate change and perennial flooding.”
Pineda said that some 53,000 hectares of land are used for rice production in the province.
“With our collective efforts to improve farmers’ yield and considering the vast area for rice production, there is no way that we will be hungry in Pampanga,” said Pineda in the dialect. ●Joey Pavia
