PAGADIAN CITY, ZAMBOANGA DEL SUR โ€“ The NIA Regional Office IX Institutional Development Unit (IDU) welcomes the NIA Central Office Institutional Development Divisionโ€“Operations Department (IDD-OD) as it conducts post-evaluation and impact assessment activities from August 24 to 28, 2026. The team is administering survey questionnaires to selected Irrigatorsโ€™ Associations (IAs) and cooperatives that benefited from NIA livelihood programs, including the Farming Support Services Program (FSSP), DSWD Program Convergence Budgetingโ€“Sustainable Livelihood Program (PCB-SLP), and DSWD Enhanced Partnership Against Hunger and Poverty (EPAHP). The survey will be conducted among selected beneficiaries from the NIA IX offices in Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga del Norte, and Zamboanga Sibugay, covering 20 percent of the beneficiaries under each program.

For the FSSP, the post-evaluation survey will assess the programโ€™s implementation, processes, outcomes, and the challenges encountered in delivering support to its beneficiaries. The impact assessments for PCB-SLP and EPAHP will examine how these livelihood interventions have contributed to the socio-economic conditions, employment opportunities, and livelihood capacities of beneficiaries. The assessments aim to provide a clearer understanding of how the programs are being implemented on the ground and the impact of the assistance on the communities they serve.

The review also includes the NIA Irrigators Association (IA) Livelihood Program, focusing on its contribution to income generation, employment opportunities, and the livelihood capacity of its beneficiaries. Through the surveys, the NIA IDD-OD aims to gather actual feedback and experiences from program beneficiaries that can help measure the results of these interventions and identify areas for improvement. The activity forms part of NIAโ€™s continuing efforts to evaluate its livelihood programs and strengthen support for farmers and their organizations.

MAHAYAG, ZAMBOANGA DEL SUR โ€” Guided by the leadership and continued support of NIA Regional Manager Engr. June Nathaniel S. Plaza, the National Irrigation Administrationโ€“Zamboanga del Sur Irrigation Management Office (NIA ZDS IMO) conducted a Clustered Turn-Out Service Area Group (TSAG) Meeting on August 11, 2026, in Barangay Tumapic, Mahayag. The meeting was led by IMO Manager Engr. Girlie M. Detalla, together with SARIS Systems Chief Melvin P. Maata, and attended by the Barangay Captain, Irrigators Association (IA) officers and members, Irrigators Development Officers (IDOs), and NIA technical personnel. Also present was Regional Office Operations Head Rosie Lyn R. Bayawa, who led the deployment and orientation of the newly hired IDO. The new IDO also had the opportunity to observe the TSAG meeting.

The TSAG meeting provided an opportunity for the Irrigators Associations to raise concerns affecting their areas and discuss these matters directly with NIA personnel. Engr. Detalla also encouraged the IAs to remain actively involved in the proper management and maintenance of their irrigation facilities. During the discussion, the Irrigators Associations raised concerns regarding drainage and other matters affecting water delivery in the area. An IA also raised a request for the possible re-routing of the waterway, which was noted for further assessment.

In response, Engr. Detalla directed the NIA technical personnel to conduct site inspections and walkthroughs of the identified areas. She also instructed the conduct of the necessary survey and field validation to assess the conditions on the ground and provide a basis for determining appropriate actions. The activity highlights NIA ZDS IMOโ€™s continued efforts to work closely with Irrigators Associations, listen to their concerns, and take appropriate actions based on actual field conditions in support of farming communities across the province.
