Reports revealed that this liquid organic fertilizer is applicable to rice, corn, flowering and ornamental plants, shrubs, vegetables and other crops.

Also, a total of 200 sacks of rehab palay seeds were handed out to farmers who were greatly affected by the incessant rains experienced last January that triggered the rise of the flood water which caused damaged to their respective rice fields. The distributed certified palay seeds are classified as RC 18 and RC 128 varieties.

Meanwhile, the office of the Provincial Agriculturist revealed the distribution of IEC materials to the farmers recently under the Palay Check Program which they recently launched to each of the municipalities of this province.
