|| s part of the government’s goal to attain food security, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte recently approved a National Soil Health Program (NSHP) aimed at rejuvenating the country’s degraded and “sick” soils and ensuring increased crop production in a sustainable manner.

The NSHP will be implemented by the Department of Agriculture through its Bureau of Soils and Water Management (DA-BSWM) from 2021 to 2023, with a budget of P523.57 million (M).

“On behalf of millions of Filipino farmers, we thank President Duterte for supporting this long-awaited soil rejuvenation program to enable our farmers produce bountiful crops and earn more income for their families,” said Agriculture Secretary William Dar.

“As soil is the foundation of agriculture, we must therefore protect, preserve, and nurture it to sustainably produce adequate, affordable, and nutritious food for all Filipinos,” he added.
