Romblon - In a concerted effort to support agricultural sustainability and provide livelihood opportunities, the Municipal Agriculture Office, together with the Municipal Planning and Development Office of Magdiwang Romblon and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Romblon Field Office, has initiated assistance benefiting twelve (12) farmer-beneficiaries.
Under the Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers (TUPAD) the twelve (12) farmers of Talaba Irrigators' Association, Inc. have embarked on a significant endeavor to clean canals within the community. This ten-day program, which started on March 13 and ends on March 23, 2024, intends to improve irrigation systems that are essential to regional agricultural operations. By engaging in canal cleaning activities, they are not only earning income but also playing a vital role in preserving and optimizing vital agricultural resources for future generations.
The collaborative effort between various governmental bodies underscores a commitment to address both economic and agricultural challenges within the community. By integrating labor opportunities with agricultural development, this initiative not only promotes sustainable farming practices but also empowers local farmers by providing them with gainful employment.
Moreover, this project stands as a testament to the power of community-driven initiatives in bringing about positive transformations. Tangible advancements are materializing in both the economic and agricultural spheres of Magdiwang Romblon, showcasing the efficacy of collaborative efforts.
