Makabagong Teknolohiya para sa Mas Maayos na Pamamahala ng Fishpond Lease Agreements!

Los Baños, LAGUNA | Ngayong Agosto 3, 2026, pormal na isinagawa sa BFAR CALABARZON Training Hall ang Ceremonial Turnover ng ISDAAN ni SARAI Technology (FLA Monitoring System) mula sa Smarter Approachable to Reinvigorate Agriculture as an Industry in the Philippines (SARAI) patungo sa BFAR CALABARZON.

Ang ISDAAN ni SARAI ay binuo sa pamamagitan ng pagtutulungan ng Department of Science and Technology – Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (DOST PCAARRD) at ng University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) sa ilalim ng programang SARAI. Ang sistemang ito ay nagsisilbing digital platform na idinisenyo upang mapahusay ang monitoring at pamamahala ng Fishpond Lease Agreements (FLAs) sa pamamagitan ng mas episyente, organisado, at real-time na pagmomonitor ng status at iba pang mahahalagang impormasyon ng mga fishpond lease areas.

Ang turnover na ito ay isang mahalagang hakbang tungo sa mas moderno at mas epektibong pamamahala ng mga pangisdaan. Sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng makabagong teknolohiya at pagpapatibay ng ugnayan sa pagitan ng DOST-PCAARRD, UPLB, at BFAR CALABARZON, mas mapapalakas ang digital transformation sa sektor ng pangisdaan at higit na mapapabuti ang paghahatid ng serbisyo sa ating mga fishpond lease agreement holders.
