TIAONG, Quezon - Ang Agricultural Program Coordinating Office sa Quezon ay nagbigay ng halos nasa 2,405 lata ng mga buto ng gulay sa Office of the Provincial Agriculturist (OPA).

Sa ilalim ng Plant, Plant, Plant Program ng Department of Agriculture (DA), dapat na maipamahagi ang mga inilalaang binhi sa lahat ng mga lungsod at munisipyo ng lalawigan sa pamamagitan ng kani-kanilang mga bayan at munisipal ng agriculturist o technician ng agrikultura.

Ipapatupad ng Department of Agriculture (DA) sa buong bansa ang "Plant, Plant, Plant Program" o "Ahon Lahat, Pagkaing Sapat (ALPAS) Laban sa Covid-19" program para sa mga magsasaka, mangingisda at mamimili.

"Ang 'Plant, Plant, Plant Program' ay ipatutupad hindi lamang sa Luzon, kung saan ipinatutupad enhance community quarantine, kundi pati na rin sa Visayas at Mindanao," sabi ng agriculture secretary William Dar.

Inaasahan na 35 na mga lugar sa Quezon ang makikinabang sa serbisyong suportang ito ng High Development Crops Development Program ng DA CALABARZON.

"Kami ay ginagabayan ng 'Whole of Nation' approach na itinaguyod ni Pangulong Rodrigo Roa Duterte, upang madagdagan ang antas ng pagkain ng bansa sa panahon ng emergency situation na resulta ng Covid-19 pandemic," dagdag pa ng kalihim na si Dar.

“We are guided by the ‘Whole of Nation’ approach as advocated by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, to increase the country’s food adequacy level during the emergency situation resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic,” secretary Dar added.

Ang Pechay, mustasa, kangkong, at sitao ay ang mga buto na ibibigay sa mga distrito I, III, at IV.

“In the next two weeks, we will conduct via teleconference regional consultations and planning nationwide with our partners — local government units, and regional and provincial agriculture and fishery councils (RAFCs and PAFCs) — to update them on developments due to the Covid-19 national emergency situation and enhance the implementation of refocused DA programs, including the Plant, Plant, Plant Program,” sabi ng DA chief.

Pinapayuhan ang lahat ng mga kinatawan ng tanggapan ng agrikultura ng lungsod at munisipalidad na i-claim ang mga buto ng gulay na inilalaan sa kanila sa OPA sa Lungsod ng Lucena.

Mangyaring tandaan na ang seed request ay nasa isang "first-come, first serve" basis. Ang priyoridad ay ibinibigay sa mga grupo ng mga magsasaka na mayroong umiiral na merkado para sa kanilang ani upang matiyak na ang pagkain ay magagamit, abot-kayang, at maa-access para sa mga mamimili.

“We thank the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) for approving our recommended P31-billion supplemental budget to fund the ‘Plant, Plant, Plant Program’ that seeks to increase national agri-fishery output through intensified use of quality seeds, appropriate inputs, modern technologies to increase levels of productivity across all commodities, and thus ensure food productivity, availability, accessibility and affordability amidst the threat of Covid-19 pandemic,” ayon kay secretary Dar.

“Of the P31-billion additional budget, we will vigorously pursue a P8.5-billion ‘Rice Resiliency Project’ aimed at producing more rice to increase our sufficiency level from the present 87 percent to 93 percent,” sabi pa secretary Dar.

"Kami ay mapalakas ang paggawa ng palay na maabot ang 22.12 milyong metriko tonelada sa katapusan ng Disyembre 2020, katumbas ng 13.51 MMT ng bigas o 93% ng kabuuang demand ng bansa sa 14.46 MMT," dagdag niya pa.

“We will boost palay production to reach 22.12 million metric tons by end of December 2020, equivalent to 13.51 MMT of rice or 93% of the country’s total demand at 14.46 MMT,” pagtatapos niya.

“Right after the current dry season, we will urge farmers to plant more areas by providing them quality seeds, fertilizers, and appropriate technical assistance,” said secretary Dar.
