๐ฟ Strengthening Partnerships for a Thriving Plant Industry ๐ฟ
Last November 26, 2025, the DAโBureau of Plant Industry convened a meaningful stakeholders meeting at Zuri Hotel, Diversion Road, Mandurriao, Iloilo Cityโa gathering that highlighted the power of collaboration in shaping the future of agriculture in Western Visayas.
Stakeholders from various sectors came together to discuss key concerns, explore opportunities, and align efforts to improve seed systems, crop productivity, and quality standards. The meeting became a space where experiences were shared openly, ideas flowed freely, and collective solutions took shape.
At the heart of this event were our partner agencies whose support, expertise, and active participation helped strengthen the direction of the discussions:
๐ฑ DAโPhilRice Negros
๐ฑ DAโWestern Visayas
๐ฑ West Visayas Federation of Multipurpose and Seed Producers Cooperative (WVFMSPC)
We deeply appreciate your commitment to working hand-in-hand with us in advancing the plant industry and empowering our growers.
This gathering was more than a meetingโit was a reminder that progress is possible when organizations unite with a shared purpose. With continued collaboration, we move forward with clearer goals, stronger partnerships, and renewed determination to support the farmers and seed producers of Western Visayas.
Together, we build. Together, we strengthen. Together, we grow. ๐พโจ
