13 Apr DA Finally Turns Over The Longest “Farm-To-Market Road” In Region 10, Length: 13.94 KM
Mga higala! The Department of Agriculture-Philippine Rural Development Project 10 (DA-PRDP 10) has finally turned over the longest Farm-to-Market Road (FMR) in Region 10 (Northern Mindanao), to the local government of Damulog, Bukidnon!
This said road is the Sinarayan-Pocopoco-Tangkulan FMR which has a length of 13.94 kilometers and is worth 188,411,870.61 pesos.
This farm-to-market road (FMR) will greatly help the municipality’s farmers, who rely on their rubber, corn, rice, sugarcane, banana, and cassava to earn a living.
Damulog Mayor Melino L. Buro expressed his gratitude for the newly completed road:
“The barangays that will enjoy the benefits of the newly constructed road are actually the barangays that need road access the most because these are farming areas and at the same time, an Indigenous People (IP) area. With the new road, they will no longer have a hard time transporting their produce. This will also greatly serve our IP brothers and sisters because majority of them earn a living through farming.”
DA-10 Executive Director and PRDP-10 Project Director Carlene C. Collado then praised the efforts of every stakeholder who helped make the completion of the project possible.
