Carabao dairy producers group receives storage facility from DA-PRDP
The Department of Agriculture – Philippine Rural Development Project (DA-PRDP) turns over the P17.5-M enterprise subproject to the Catalanacan Multi-Purpose Cooperative (CAMPC) from the Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija, on December 28, 2023.
The said enterprise includes the construction of a new storage facility with garage, two delivery trucks, a flexi-body van, and other production and marketing materials. The subproject was proposed by CAMPC to the DA-PRDP to address the lack of storage and delivery facility for both their supplies and products.
CAMPC has already been processing dairy products and is also an official supplier of pasteurized toned milk, through the Philippine Carabao Center (PCC), to the Department of Education and the Department of Social Welfare Development’s milk feeding programs prior the subproject.
Present in the turnover ceremony were officials and staff from the PRDP Central Luzon, Provincial Project Management and Implementation Unit – Nueva Ecija, City government of Muñoz, PCC, and CAMPC. ### (Ram Bautista, RPCO 3 InfoACE)
