On the last day of the Management Committee meeting of the Department of Agriculture (DA), Senior Undersecretary Domingo F. Panganiban highlighted that with the significant increase in the budget of the DA , services must improve to increase the productivity and income of Filipino farmers and fishers.
In his message during the closing ceremony of the ManCom, Panganiban stressed that the DA is given sufficient budget to operate and perform to attain national food security, in line with the directives of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.
“I hope that the task mandated by President Marcos will be done with glorious intentions,” Panganiban said.
The Sr. Undersecretary thanked the officials and staff of DA for taking part in the movement to ensure a food- and nutrition-secure nation.
“Salamat sa pagtataguyod ng mga proyekto ng Pangulo, at pagsasama-sama para sa kapakanan ng buong bansa,” he said.### (photos by Adonis Buhayan, DA-AFID)
