LOOK: National Banner Program Council on High-Value Crops in Fruits and Vegetables converge to present FY 2021 proposed budget.Private sector-partners, the Department of Agriculture- High-Value Crops Development Program (DA-HVCDP), and the Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI) conducted a virtual meeting on February 26, 2021, to discuss the proposed plan and budget proposal for FY 2021.A total of PhP717,157,000(M) budget for the vegetable sector while a PhP212,181,000(M) for fruits was presented by DA-HVCDP which is composed of production and extension support services, research and development, agricultural machineries, equipment, and facilities services, and irrigation network services.The DA-HVCDP also reported the downward trend of the budget for High-Value Crops which can be attributed to the shift of focus to credit. Meanwhile, the private sector-partners expressed their support on the endorsement for the possible increase of the HVCDP budget for FY 2022.The private stakeholder partners also discussed the possibility of conducting a national fruit symposium and the conduct of high-value crops week as their part in the celebration of the International Year of Fruits and Vegetables.###Text and screenshot by Carlo Cezar BaldosaVisit www.pcaf.da.gov.ph for more stories ...
