LUBAO, Pampanga–Governor Lilia “Nanay” G. Pineda and the Department of Agriculture jointly distributed subsidized farm equipment to Lubao and San Luis farmers as part of the Agriculture Enhancement program of the provincial government the other day in this town.
The governor was joined by Second District Board Member Olga Frances “Fritzie” David and Third District Board Member Trina Dizon, Engr. Lulu Alingcastre and Maria David of the agriculture office during the distribution.
Pineda said that most of the rice growers in the province cannot perk up their yields because of lack of farm tools and equipment that lessen time and manual labor.
She added this predicament of the agriculture sector prompted the provincial government to support the farmers in the purchase of farm machineries.
It can be noted that the DA subsidized 85 percent of the cost of machineries and 15 percent which is supposed to be shouldered by the farmers is being financed by the provincial government to ease the burden of the Kapampangan land tillers.
“Farm equipment like combined harvesters are expensive for farmers who own a hectare of land. Their 15 percent counterpart is still hard to produce,” the governor said.
With this, the governor decided to include farm machinery distribution in their agricultural enhancement program.
Five units of combined harvesters, rice cutters harvester and 4-wheel rice reaper were awarded to members of San Luis Irrigators Association and Lambak
Multi-purpose Cooperatives.
While, Jose Bernarte from barangay San Rafael, this town was given rice thresher.
Lemencio Banal, also a farmer from Lubao, said the use of these tools will be per schedule basis so every member of the group could be given the chance to utilize the equipment.
“With the equipment provided by Gov. Pineda and DA we will be able to double our harvest,” Banal said.
The farmer-beneficiaries had expressed their gratitude to the governor and the national government particularly to the DA as they need not shell out even a single centavo to own these modern farm machineries.
Meanwhile, Provincial Agriculturist Crispin Guinto reminded that only association and group of farmers can be given farm equipment as per DA instructions and individual request may no longer be granted. ● JENNA LUMBANG
