BAR integrates DA R&D
action plans
by Marlowe U. Aquino
The Bureau of Agricultural Research (BAR)
initiated the preparation of the Department of Agriuclture's
R&D units' action plans for CY 2000. This was done
during the DA R&D Action Planning and Reorientation
Workshop held last 1-2 February 2000 at the JICA Training
Hall, ATI Building, Diliman, Quezon City.
The participants included the DA Regional
Integrated Agricultural Research Center Managers, DA
Attached Agencies and Staff Bureaus Research Directors/
Chiefs, Regional Planning Officers, and Budget Officers.
During the activity, the participants
were required to prepare and validate their agency R&D
work and financial plans for CY 2000 based on the goals
and priority areas of the Estrada administration. The
different agencies' plans and programs include human
resource development and infrastructure development.
Also, insitutional support funds for knowledge management
and administrative support services were earmarked.
Finally, it was agreed that all agency
plans should cohere with the national integrated R&D
agenda and programs prepared by the different RDE Networks
both at the national and regional levels. Moreover,
these should adress the concerns of farming and fishing
communities' needs and satisfy the Department's program
towards agriculture and fisheries modernization.
