SAN FELIPE, Zambales — The Provincial Government of Zambales announced that some P60-million worth of agricultural projects had been approved by the Department of Agriculture (DA).
\nThis was announced by Zambales Governor Hermogenes Ebdane Jr. to fishermen in a forum held in Botoal town.
\nHe said the projects include the Salaza-San Lorenzo Communal Irrigation Project (CIP), which will irrigate 136 hectares of farmlands in the adjacent towns of Masinloc and Palauig, and the Paete-Balincaguing CIP, which will irrigate 100 hectares of farmlands in San Narciso.
\nRepresentative Omar Ebdane (2nd district, Zambales) said the projects were Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala\u2019s commitment to improve the lots of local farmers.
\nHe said this \u201cdovetails with our efforts to introduce modern farming techniques, provide more farm inputs for sustainable yield, and attract more residents to farming and fishing industries.\u201d
\nAlcala visited Zambales recently to personally see the needs of farmers and study how industry could get a much-needed boost.
\nThe secretary also sat down with Ebdane and other local officials to set a timetable for a larger agriculture forum in the province that would \u201cintegrate and fine-tune the master development roadmap\u201d that his department has drafted.
\nGovernor Ebdane encouraged local farmers and fishermen to present their detailed proposals to Alcala but reminded them to prioritize projects that are really important and those that can be immediately granted by the DA.
\n\u201cWe can pitch in for the rest of your needs, as agriculture is a priority program of the Provincial Government, and we can also source funds from the office of Congressman Ebdane,\u201d the governor added.
\nHe also noted that the increase in the national agriculture budget from P21 billion last year to P61 billion this year \u201cindicates the Aquino administration\u2019s commitment to develop the countryside and uplift marginalized sectors in the society.\u201d
\nRepresentative Ebdane, meanwhile, urged farmers to take advantage of existing government programs that are geared towards modernizing farming and increasing farmers\u2019 skills and use of technology, including organic farming.
