DA-13 validates prospect farmer group for egg production
CARRASCAL, Surigao del Sur -- The personnel of the Department of Agriculture
(DA) Caraga, through its Livestock Program, conducted a field validation to
Maslog Integrated Farmers Association (MIFA) in Carrascal, Surigao del Sur on
October 4, 2023.
The MIFA, accordingly, was a possible recipient of a P2.4 million grant on egg
production project under the Livestock Economic Enterprise Development (LEED)
Program, which will include housing, stocks, feeds, drugs, and biologics to
ensure operation will be based on the cycle.
The LEED program intends to strengthen the contribution of the livestock and
poultry sub-sectors by increasing the income of small-hold farmers through the
distribution of grants through livestock and poultry modules. The program
implementation includes technical assistance to the beneficiaries to elevate
their output to an enterprise level by value-adding and amplifying their
production. (NGPB, PIA-Surigao del Sur)
