PUERTO PRINCESA CITY The provincial government of Palawan’s Livelihood Project Management Unit (LPMU) will focus on strengthening the farming of corn on the belief that it has the potential to develop the local agriculture.
Dr. Myrna Ordinario-Lacanilao, program manager of the Livelihood Cluster of the IHELP (Infrastructure, Health, Education, Livelihood and Protection of the Environment), said increasing the farming and production of corn in Palawan is among the major sources of revenue that the administration of Gov. Jose Alvarez is supporting in order to help indigent families.
It is not a secret to us that the traditionally harvested products by our farmers are rice, banana, vegetable crops and, occasionally, corn, Lacanilao said.
