Korean funded greenhouses set for turnover by November
THE DEPARTMENT of Agriculture (DA) said that it is set to turn over its smart greenhouse projects in Western Visayas and Northern Mindanao by November.
The DA said that officials from the Korean Agency of Education, Promotion, and Information Service in Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries also met with Agriculture Senior Undersecretary Domingo Panganiban to discuss updates on the project.
The project established 10 greenhouses in Iloilo and 11 in Bukidnon, and funded by Korean Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
The DA said that this was in an effort to improve yields and quality of high value crops through “innovative technologies.”
“Based on the final monitoring of project performance and development of sustainability plan, the EPIS team (said) that the project is successful,” the DA said. — Adrian H. Halili
