RICE  growers received farm production input subsidies provided by San Carlos City government on August 31- September 1, 2023 at the Bliss, Brgy. Pagal.

City Mayor Julier “Ayoy” Resuello, accompanied City Agriculture Officer Estrellita Jacaban and Councilor Sam Baniqued distributed some 3,000 inorganic and foliar fertilizers to the program’s beneficiaries from the city’s 74 barangays.

According to the City Agriculture Office. with the farm inputs, rice farmers can increase their  crop and yield production while promoting the implementation of appropriate fertilizer application.

Assisted by the Department of Agriculture, the program enables  local farmers to increase farm productivity and income amid the advent  of the wet season that results in poor nutrient absorption of flooded crops.

Jacaban added that “Foliar application of fertilizers is an effective practice to minimize flooding damage to commercial production.” (Kim Gealogo)
