DA sets incentive scheme for farmers

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — The Department of Agriculture (DA)-Pampanga said that it is inviting farmer groups to take advantage of the farm machine incentive scheme that aims to provide farm machine assistance to farmer groups who can keep up with the rice production targets of the department.

DA Regional Director Andrew Villacorta said the machineries include post-harvest equipment and facilities, stressing that the machines will greatly boost local production of rice and other agricultural products.

Villacorta said the project is open to farmer groups who would like to avail of the incentive by registering their farm production and exceeding targets. He said that such move will give farmers better access to farm inputs and will help the overall production targets of the DA.

If farmers exceed in production per hectare, they will get a corresponding point for assistance.

He added that once implemented, the assistances are expected to boost current farm standards in the region and result in better production and harvest of agricultural products.

The regional office reported over the weekend that some P350 million worth of farm machinery projects where implemented in 2010.

DA said it aims to achieve 3.6 million metric ton (MT) production of palay for this year. The Bureau of Agricultural Statistics, Villacorta said, has recorded 1.7-million MT production for the first semester of the year. He added that DA expects 1.9 million metric ton production this wet cropping season.

DA has been topping DA’s production goals since last year, reaching production goals and registering even substantial production beyond target goals.

Villacorta said the move is part of DA’s initiative to achieve its production targets this season. He added that aside from the insurance coverage, DA has a buffer stock of 30,000 bags of certified seeds for seed subsidy for those that are not covered by the program or those that are not within the 62,000 hectares risk areas identified for coverage.

With new golf courses springing up in and around Clark Philippines and an ever-increasing patronage by tourists from neighboring South Korea, Clark Freeport is short on hotel accommodation.

Even with the addition of 27 holes in 2009 and 2010, there is an acute shortage golf tee times for at least 5-6 months each year.  Local players compete with frustrated (golf) tourists from Korea and China for tee times.  Unfortunately Clark Philippines doesn’t have the luxury of vast tracts of land suitable for this type of development.

Mimosa offers 36 holes of championship golf, visitors can pay and play, busy during the weekends but not that difficult to get on or join up with a group to form a 4-ball.   The new FAKCC offers 27 holes of world-class golf.
