PAGPAPALAWAK SA TECH-BASED PROGRAMS PARA SA MGA MAGSASAKA, ISINUSULONG NI REP. TIANGCO

ISINUSULONG ni Navotas Rep. Toby Tiangco na palawakin pa ang mga programang pang-agrikultura na pinamumunuan ng pamahalaan upang mapalakas ang produktibidad at kita ng mga magsasaka.

“Embracing technology-driven farming methods is key to strengthening our agriculture sector,” ani Tiangco.

“The government must prioritize equipping farmers with the necessary technology and knowledge to maximize productivity and income potential,” dagdag niya.

Binanggit niya ang tagumpay ng maliliit na water impounding system, fertigation techniques, at drip irrigation sa Hermosa at Dinalupihan Bataan, na nagpabago sa produksyon ng pananim.

“According to the agriculture department, these technologies can cut fertilizer use by up to 70 percent and reduce water consumption by 30 percent,” aniya.

“We need to replicate these programs nationwide. Expanding their reach will help farmers optimize resources and lower production costs,” sabi niya.

Aniya, dapat ding tuklasin ng Department of Agriculture (DA) ang higit pang pakikipagtulungan sa pribadong sektor upang mapabuti ang kapakanan ng mga magsasaka.

Binigyang-diin niya ang Digital Farmers Program (DFP) ng DA-Agricultural Training Institute, na nagbibigay sa mga magsasaka ng mga digital na tool, kabilang ang mga smartphone, tablet, at internet access, upang mapahusay ang produktibidad ng agrikultura.

“The lack of access to smartphones and internet is a major barrier to technology adoption among rice farmers,” pahayag ng mambabatas.
