Close to 50 participants attended the Bagac Bataan Cacao Techno Forum last February 28, 2017. This was the last “month of love” forums for Plantacion de Sikwate.
It was indeed a high-spirited batch of farmers! We would like to thank you for attending and sharing your cacao adventures with the group.
#TeamPDS would like to thank the Mr. Guillermo Bantugan for sponsoring the venue and food. Without the support of Bagac Municipality, Provincial Agriculturist, National Program Coordinator, Ms. Jennifer Remoquillo, OIC, HVCDP, Mr. Fernando Lorenzo, HVCDP Regional Coordinator and Mr. Oscar Oliva, Provincial HVCDP Coordinator for Bataan, this forum will not be possible without you. Maraming salamat po!
PDS President Chris Fadriga was with Manong Dolping, PDS interim Vice-President for Negros Occidental the other day.
He recounts that part of ‘nong Dolping’s 2000 plus cacao seedlings planted about 3 years ago have started to produce pods and will start to harvest a few pods soon.
Farmers need not to be under the stereotype that Farming is boring. Here is a candid shot of the real cacao experience as shared by our President Mr. Chris Fadriga. He is a poster boy when it comes to #unlihappiness. So he makes CACAO FARMING more FUN in the Philippines!
