Davao de Oro --- After four to six months, more than 800 kilos of Polyculture Bangus and Molobicus Red Tilapia were harvested on June 6, 2023, during the one-time harvest festival of the province’s Technological Development Farm located at P-2, Barangay Tibagon, Pantukan, Davao de Oro.
Provincial Agriculturist Dr. Jaime D. Anter said that the farm is a research proposal that intends to discover new technology for the fisherfolks in the province by demonstrating the use of Polyculture on bangus and saline tilapia.
“Pagmahuman na ang process sa evaluation, the data will tell us if this project proposal will be a recommendatory para mahimong adopted sa atoang lugar particularly sa tanan areas near in shorelines”, Dr. Anter said.
He added that they choose tilapia because of marketability while its Polyculture improves feed utilization, enhances water quality, and increases total yield and profit.
Governor Dorothy Montejo-Gonzaga lauded the success of the project resulting in P104K pesos worth of proceeds. She looks forward that with the help of the aforesaid project, more livelihood opportunities will be given to the people not only in Pantukan but also to the entire province.
“Kung mo ingon man gud ta ug harvest buot pasabot positive na, kami sa probinsyal nga panggamhanan positbong naningkamot nga matabangan nga mo asenso ang kinabuhi sa mga katawhan sa Davao de Oro pinaagi sa mga programa sa gobyerno”, Gov Gonzaga in her message.
Present during the activity were BFAR XI Regional Director Raul C. Millana, Mayor Leonel “Jhong” Ceniza, Municipal Agriculturist Alfredo A. Sasutana, and Barangay Officials. (Rheafe Hortizano, Provincial Information Officer, Photos by Jay-Ar Naval)
