legumes farmers
by Maria Rowena Briones
To improve planting practices for corn
and peanut production, the Farmer Industry Advisory
Committee will pilot a project comparing the level of
productivity and efficiency of monoculture corn and
peanut production and integrated corn and peanut production
system.
Dr. Manuel Avanceña, the partner
private sector, will provide the necessary initial farm
inputs and operations and handle the marketing. Technical
assistance will be sourced from the Corn and Legumes
RDE Networks.
Dr. Artemio Salazar, National Team Leader
of the Corn RDE Network, heads the team who will visit
the project site in Claveria, Misamis Oriental for the
rapid appraisal of the project and firm the project
design. Dr. Resty David of the Regional Programs Division
