BPI-NSQCS CONDUCTS INFORMATION CARAVAN ON PLANT NURSERY ACCREDITATION
Matagumpay na naisagawa ang Information Caravan on Plant Nursery Accreditation ng Bureau of Plant Industry–National Seed Quality Control Services (BPI-NSQCS) noong September 2, 2026, sa Babatngon, Leyte.
Tinalakay sa aktibidad ang kahalagahan ng paggamit ng NSIC-registered varieties at quality planting materials para sa pagpapalakas ng ube industry. Kasama rin sa mga paksa ang propagation practices, nursery management, at ang mahalagang papel ng Plant Nursery Accreditation sa pagtiyak ng kalidad ng mga planting materials.
Patuloy ang BPI-NSQCS sa pakikipagtulungan sa mga stakeholders upang maisulong ang quality planting materials at isang mas matatag at sustainable na ube industry. 💜

Ang Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI), sa pamamagitan ng National Plant Quarantine Services Division (NPQSD), sa pakikipagtulungan sa 25sqm Incorporated, ay nagsagawa ng First Certification Training on Profume Fumigant for Quarantine Fumigation noong Setyembre 1–3, 2026, sa BPI Director’s Office Conference Room. Ang tatlong-araw na training ay dinaluhan ng 46 na kalahok na binubuo ng mga fumigator at BPI inspector, na naglalayong palakasin ang kanilang competency sa ligtas at epektibong paggamit ng sulfuryl fluoride bilang alternatibong fumigant para sa quarantine treatment.

Patuloy na palalakasin ng BPI ang competency assessment at monitoring upang makatulong na matiyak na maayos na naipatutupad ang quarantine treatments at epektibong napoprotektahan ang regulated plant commodities laban sa pests. Mahalaga rin ang training bilang requirement para sa mga indibidwal na naghahangad na makakuha ng license to use fumigants for quarantine treatment. Kung hindi makukumpleto ang requirements, hindi awtorisado ang mga fumigator na magsagawa ng fumigation para sa import, export, at domestic movement.

The Department of Agriculture–Bureau of Plant Industry (DA-BPI), through the BPI-Crop Research and Production Support Division (BPI-CRPSD), in collaboration with the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice), Agricultural Training Institute (ATI), DA-Regional Field Offices (DA-RFOs), and the National Irrigation Administration (NIA), successfully conducted the Basic Training Course on In**ed Rice Seed Production and Certification on August 10–14, 2026, in Tagbilaran City, Bohol. The five-day training was attended by 33 seed growers from Regions III, V, and VIII, as well as the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). The activity aimed to enhance their competencies in the production, handling, certification, testing, and quality management of in**ed rice seeds.

The training covered essential topics on cultural management practices, varietal identity and genetic purity, field inspection and roguing, seed warehouse management and storage, seed certification, and seed testing procedures. Participants also took part in hands-on laboratory and field activities, including seed processing and testing, roguing, and identifying plant diseases, weeds, and insect pests.

PhilRice also introduced the Rice Seed Information System (RSIS) and demonstrated the GrowApp, highlighting the importance of digital tools in supporting rice seed production and monitoring.

Through this combination of technical discussions, laboratory activities, and hands-on field exercises, the training strengthened the capacities of seed growers and supported the Department of Agriculture's continuing efforts to promote the production and distribution of high-quality in**ed rice seeds toward increased rice productivity and strengthened food security.

Anchored on the theme “Binhi ng Kaalaman, Ani ng Kaunlaran,” the three-day review featured 16 research papers developed and presented by researchers from various BPI centers, divisions, and offices. The researchers presented their findings, defended their studies, and discussed how their work can contribute to the development of the plant industry.

The panel of evaluators included Teresita H. Borromea, Professor Emeritus of the University of the Philippines Los Baños; Ofero A. Capariño, Ph.D., Career Scientist I of the Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization; Jessamyn R.
