DA-10 strengthens 4ID’s food resiliency efforts with veggie seeds prov’n

 

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – The Department of Agriculture – Regional Field Office 10 (DA-10) reinforced food sufficiency to the Philippine Army’s 4th Infantry (Diamond) Division through vegetable seeds provision on February 4 at the agency compound.

DA-10 Regional Technical Director for Operations Carlota S. Madriaga, alongside High Value Crops Development Program focal person Kersten S. Pagalan, handed over some 30 packets of okra and bush sitao apiece, 23 4-in-1 chopsuey vegetables, and 7 packets of garden salad to PFC Ana Lou L. Llacuna.

Rooted in the DA’s mission of championing gardening across all spaces, the initiative arms uniformed personnel with food sustenance in their own compounds, boosting self-sufficiency amid service exigencies.# (BJCE)
