Pagpalig-on sa Panginabuhian pinaagi sa Tilapia Farming

Malampuson nga gipahigayon karong adlawa, April 8, 2026, ang Ceremonial Turn-over and Stocking of Tilapia Fingerlings sa Cebu City Farmers Information and Technology Services (CCFITS) Center sa Taptap, Cebu City.

Kapin 60,000 ka tilapia fingerlings ang malampusong giturn-over ngadto sa mga mag-uuma sa Brgy. Sudlon II, Tabunan, ug Taptap isip kabahin sa padayon nga pagpalig-on sa atong sektor sa aquaculture.

Gitambongan kini ni Assistant City Agriculturist Arlie Gesta uban sa mga kauban sa City Agriculture Department (CAD), ug ni Elnie Dublin, representante sa Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) VII.

Dako kaayo ang among pasalamat sa BFAR VII sa ilang walay hunong nga suporta sa atong mga mag-uuma dinhi sa syudad. Ang maong programa nagpasiugda sa importansya sa pagpamuhi og tilapia isip lig-on nga tuburan sa panginabuhian ug dugang kita sa atong mga mag-uuma.

Pinaagi sa paningkamot ug liderato nila Konsehal Joey Baclayon ug Mayor Nestor D. Archival Sr., nagpadayon ang mga inisyatibo nga naghatag og kahigayunan ug kalamboan sa sektor sa agrikultura ug pangisdaan sa Cebu City.

Padayon kita sa pagtinabangay alang sa mas lig-on ug mas mauswagon nga kaugmaon sa atong mga mag-uuma.

Pagpadaghan sa Baka pinaagi sa Artificial Insemination

Padayon ang paningkamot sa atong Livestock Technician sa pagpausbaw sa populasyon sa baka pinaagi sa Artificial Insemination (AI)

Pinaagi niini nga pamaagi, mas napili ang dekalidad nga semilya nga makahatag ug mas lig-on, mas himsog, ug mas produktibong mga baka.

Nakatabang usab kini sa pagpugong sa sakit, pagpaayo sa lahi, ug pagpasayon sa pagpadaghan sa kahayupan bisan layo ang breeder.

Padayon kita sa moderno ug episenteng pamaagi alang sa mas lig-on nga uma ug mas maayong kaugmaon sa atong mga mag-uuma!

Pagtanom alang sa Malungtarong Kaugmaon

Sayo karong buntaga, March 28, 2026, ang SEED4Com partner company uban sa mga volunteer mipahigayon og tree growing activity diin gipananom ang lain-laing bungang kahoy sama sa nangka, cacao, ug dwarf coconut. Ang maong kalihokan gi-facilitate sa mga kawani sa City Agriculture Department (CAD) ug gipahigayon sa perimeter sa plant nursery.

Kining inisyatibo nahimong posible tungod sa padayon nga paningkamot ni City Agriculturist Joey Baclayon, ubos sa lig-on nga liderato ni Mayor Nestor D. Archival, sa pagpalambo sa mga programa nga nagpunting sa seguridad sa pagkaon, paghatag og dugang panginabuhian, ug pagpanalipod sa kinaiyahan.

Ang pagpananom ug bungang kahoy usa ka hinungdanong lakang padulong sa malungtarong kalamboan, tungod kay kini makatabang sa pagdugang sa suplay sa pagkaon, pagpauswag sa kahimtang sa palibot, ug pag-amuma sa kinaiyahan alang sa umaabot nga mga henerasyon.

Farmer Spotlight | Empowering Women to Become Resilient Farmer

The City Agriculture Department proudly features Ms. Josefa Saga, a resilient and dedicated woman farmer with over 30 years of experience in agriculture.

For Josefa, farming is more than a livelihood—it is a legacy passed down through generations. From an early age, she worked alongside her parents in the fields, gaining hands-on experience that laid a strong foundation for her agricultural journey.

Over the years, she further enhanced her knowledge and skills by obtaining and participating in various agri development trainings and seminars conducted by the City Agriculture Department.

Today, Josefa cultivates rice, sponge gourd, and grasses for landscaping. Guided by years of practical experience, she practices integrated farming to improve both sustainability and productivity. She also adopts environmentally responsible methods, such as incorporating rice straw back unto the soil instead of burning it, helping maintain soil health, reuse vital resources and reduce environmental stress.

Josefa believes that successful farming requires careful planning and informed decision-making. She follows a well-structured planting schedule to efficiently manage farm activities and ensure consistent production. In addition, she remains attentive to pest and disease management, proper crop spacing, and overall plant care throughout each growing season.

Like many farmers, Josefa has also faced numerous challenges, including rising input costs, pest and disease pressures, and market limitations due to interventions of middlemen and traders. Despite these, she continues to adapt with resilience and determination. She approaches farming not only as a source of income but as a business—one that sustains her family and secures their future.

Currently, she markets her produce through middlemen while actively exploring better marketing opportunities to increase her earnings.

As an active member of her farmers’ association, Josefa regularly engages with fellow farmers, exchanging and sharing knowledge and strengthening community support.

Looking ahead, she remains committed to improving her farm practices, increasing her income, and continuing to provide for her family.

The City Agriculture Department remains steadfast in supporting empowered farmers like Josefa through continuous training, technical assistance, and strong community collaboration.

JICA Staff and Representatives Visit Cebu City Agriculture Department and Farmer Associations: Strengthening Local Agriculture and Food System

Cebu City recently welcomed representatives from the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) for an official visit to the City Agriculture Department and selected local farmer association in Barangay Agsungot, Cebu City. The visit, accompanied by a JICA volunteer Ms Mina Funai assigned to Cebu City Agriculture, marked another meaningful step in fostering international collaboration toward sustainable agriculture and rural development.

The activity aimed to provide JICA staff and representatives with firsthand insights into Cebu City’s agricultural programs, particularly those supporting upland and marginalized farming communities. Upon arrival, the delegation was warmly received by officials and personnel of the City Agriculture Department, who presented an overview of ongoing initiatives focused on food security, climate resilience, organic farming and livelihood enhancement.

A key highlight of the visit was the interaction with local farmer associations. Farmers shared their experiences, challenges, and successes in implementing various agricultural practices, including organic farming, crop diversification, and soil conservation techniques. The exchange created an open dialogue where both parties discussed innovative solutions and practical strategies to improve productivity and sustainability.

The presence of the JICA volunteer played a vital role in bridging communication and collaboration between the Japanese delegation and the local stakeholders. The volunteer has been actively supporting capacity-building activities, technical training, and knowledge transfer within the community, contributing significantly to the strengthening of local agricultural systems.

During the field visit, JICA staff observed demonstration farms conducted by the volunteer in the Nursery and community-based projects supported by the City Agriculture Department. These included vegetable production areas, organic technology formulation, composting sites—all aimed at enhancing food production while promoting environmentally sound practices.

The delegation expressed appreciation for the dedication of Cebu City in advancing agriculture despite challenges such as urbanization and climate change and recent international issues facing by farmers and food supply. They also acknowledged the strong participation of farmer associations as a critical factor in the success of local programs.

This visit not only reinforced the partnership between JICA and Cebu City but also opened opportunities for future collaboration, particularly in areas such as agri-technology, natural farming, post-harvest facilities, and sustainable farming innovations.

As Cebu City continues to pursue inclusive agricultural development, partnerships with organizations like JICA remain essential. Through shared knowledge, technical expertise, and mutual commitment, such collaborations help empower local farmers and contribute to a more resilient and food-secure community.

The visit concluded with optimism and a renewed commitment to strengthening ties, ensuring that Cebu City’s agricultural sector continues to thrive with support from both local and international partners.
