The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Agrarian Reform- Special Development Fund turned over infrastructure and inputs to boost agri-fishery regional productivity.
This project aims to uplift farmers and fisherfolks, providing essential support to enhance their livelihoods.
MAFAR Chief of Staff, Arphia T. Ebus, Sh. C said the Bangsamoro farmers, fisherfolk, and ARBs are the main priority of this project since these projects will help them in their day-to-day activities on the ground.
