The Local Government Unit (LGU) of Barobo, led by Mayor Ronito L. Martizano, through the Municipal Agricultural Office headed by Hon. Johnny V. Ramos, invited ASSCAT to present their research paper on "Exploring the Unheard Voices of Rice Farmers in Agusan del Sur" and the "Rice Farming Accounting System" to rice farmers' associations and people's organizations in Barobo, Surigao del Sur.
Dr. Francis Tom A. Paredes and Mr. Bernie S. Balighot, an IT expert, represented ASSCAT. Dr. Paredes shared the good news on the Soil Laboratory of the Province of Agusan del Sur and the importance of soil health analysis in rice farming. The LGU Barobo expressed interest in establishing a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to utilize the Rice Farming Accounting System (RFAS) and replicate the research study.
This initiative is open to potential collaborations with interested parties.
