Piddig, Ilocos Norte—The Piddig municipal government in
cooperation with the Ilocos Norte provincial agriculture office introduced
consolidated farming at Brgy. Estancia, this town in a forum.
Piddig overall consultant and former Piddig mayor Eduardo “Eddie” G. Guillen
along with provincial agriculture officer Norma B. Lagmay discussed several
ways to maintain the economic growth from farm to table.
One of the main agenda of the said program is to engage the members of
different zanjeras of the town to enable them to decide on farm plans from
sowing to harvest season. Herein, they will also agree as one on the price of
their crops.
Mr. Guillen said that, “This is the solution of the farmers’ difficulties
on agricultural strategies and to insure their daily needs.”
Piddig town currently has 273% rice sufficiency that expresses “value chain”
for economic development and total change in agri-business in the province of
Ilocos Norte and the entire archipelago. (Bernard Ver)
