Some Makato Policemen headed by PInsp. Maximo Sumeg-ang, Jr. learned to produce mushroom and organic fertilizer. Some participants are shown in the above pictures preparing beds for mushroom production with the use of dried banana leaves and rice straw. After those materials are completely decomposed, it will be used as fertilizer.
In support to One Town One Product (OTOP) which is organic rice product of this town, the personnel of the Makato Police Station headed by earth friendly PInsp. Maximo C. Sumeg-ang, Jr. actively participated to produce organic fertilizer needed for a sustainable organic rice production. This is through a livelihood project on mushroom production utilizing dried leaves of banana/rice straw. Their vermin casting project uses biodegradable materials gathered from the vicinity of the Municipal Hall Building.
PInsp. Sumeg-ang emphasized to his men that the by–product from mushroom production and vermicasting is organic fertilizer needed for a sustainable organic rice production, priority program of the national administration pushing OTOP through the Dept of Trade and Industry. The Makato PNP men are going to use their organic fertilizer for vegetable production, in line with the Clean and Green Project.
NFS Training
The Office of the Provincial Agriculturist based in Kalibo, Aklan conducted on site Natural Farming System (NFS) For Clean and Green Productivity training. It was held at the Makato Police Station just recently where 50 officers and men of Makato Police Station attended including some barangay tanods.
The NFS training was in response to the request of OIC of Makato Police Station PInsp. Maximo C. Sumeg-ang, Jr. who has deep concern to keep a healthy and peaceful community with satisfied constituents. They need a technical assistance as they had started a livelihood project on mushroom and vermi production as organic fertilizer for backyard vegetable garden. These activities are in line with the Clean and Green Project, and the One Town One Product (OTOP) of the national government.
The training was a combination of lecture and hands on demonstration where the participants actively discussed with resource person Ms. Marlyn R. Cañete on the preparation, formulation and application of NFS inputs. After the training, the participants appreciated more the importance of NFS, its concepts, principles and benefits.
Municipal Agri-Fishery Council (MAFC) Chairman Keith Tirol Manares believed that by practicing NFS technology with the guidance and model of Makato PNP can lead Makaton-ons to return to the organic farming which products are poison free. Manares is familiar with NFS as learned from Municipal NFS Coordinator, LGU–Makato Mrs. Arglou B. Tagala. /MP
