On May 21, 2025, members of Pagkakaisa Irrigators Association Inc. from Pungo, Calumpit, Bulacan under the Pungo PIP joined an orientation on Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) for Communal Irrigation Systems. The activity gathered irrigators from CARP-IC associations and served as a practical learning space for strengthening their understanding of water-saving approaches in rice production, particularly how AWD can help improve irrigation efficiency, manage production costs, and support more sustainable farming practices within communal systems.

The session was led by Engr. Rodino Bautista, with assistance from the Institutional Development Unit (IDU) staff of NIA–Bulacan IMO, who guided participants through discussions on how AWD can be applied at the field level. Beyond the technical aspects, the orientation also highlighted how shared effort among farmers and continued institutional guidance can support the steady adoption of improved irrigation practices, especially in systems where coordinated water management plays a key role in farm productivity.

Sa pinakabuod ng pagmamahal, nananatili ang kalayaan na hindi maaaring ikulong ng takot o pagdududa. Ang pag-ibig ay hindi lamang damdaming marahan, kundi isang pakikibaka na tahimik ngunit matatag—para sa karapatang mahalin at tanggapin nang buo, walang pagtatago, walang kondisyon.

Years ago, the Taytay-Iphag-Gapas Irrigators Association (TIGIA), Inc. in Brgy. Sta. Cruz, Jaro, Leyte carried out its activities in a humble bahay kubo that served as the association's office in 2020. Within its walls, meetings were held, plans were discussed, and decisions were made for the benefit of the farming community. It was a place where members came together with a common goal of improving irrigation services and strengthening their association through cooperation and shared responsibility.

The TIGIA office today reflects how far the association has progressed through the years. The concrete structure completed in 2023 and now standing in its place serves as a center for coordination, planning, and member engagement, while also symbolizing the collective efforts that helped make its development possible. From its early days to the present, the office has remained a witness to the association's journey, marking the milestones achieved and the commitment of its members to building a stronger future for their community.

For more than a decade, the Malanas Baug-Badas Farmers Irrigators Association, Inc. has been supporting farmers through the management of irrigation facilities serving agricultural lands in its community. As part of ongoing efforts to strengthen irrigators’ associations and recognize their contributions to irrigation management, the association underwent an Irrigators’ Association (IA) Validation on June 3, 2026.

Regular maintenance activities, active member participation, and adherence to IMT responsibilities continue to support the delivery of irrigation services to farmers. Through activities such as the IA Validation, partner agencies are able to document accomplishments, identify good practices, and further strengthen collaboration with irrigators’ associations in support of agricultural development.

The turnover of the ₱5.5-million INSPIRE Project on May 21, 2026, in Rizal, Cagayan marked an important milestone for the Mauanan–Baluncanag–Gaddabgao Farmers Credit Irrigators Cooperative (MBG FICC) - CARP IA and its 355 farmer-members. As the first Community-Based Facility partner in the province under the Department of Agriculture's INSPIRE Project, the cooperative has been entrusted with a facility designed to support organized and biosecure swine production. More than the transfer of infrastructure and resources, the ceremony recognized the cooperative’s capacity to manage a shared enterprise that can provide additional livelihood opportunities and help strengthen the economic well-being of farming families.

The project reflects the collective efforts of the Department of Agriculture, National Irrigation Administration, Department of Agrarian Reform, and local government units in supporting rural development. Through the provision of breeder stocks, housing facilities, and technical assistance, the facility is expected to improve production efficiency while promoting responsible and sustainable livestock management. As MBG FICC takes on the responsibility of operating the facility, the project also serves as an example of how strong partnerships and community participation can create opportunities that benefit both farmers and the wider community for years to come.
