The office of the Municipal Agricultural Services (OMAS) of the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Kalibo through Ms. Alice Bernal Rebuelta secured top-quality fodder/forage/pasture crops to be included in their plant nurseries for multiplication and distribution.
"Having plant nurseries with abundant sources of improved grasses, legumes, shrubs, and vines for progressive livestocks and poultry raisers, our office can help achieve economic stability." Rebuelta said in relation to the inaugural speech of Mayor William S. Lachica which he strongly asserted, "Our vision is to achieve a peaceful, mature, morally upright and reformed society with economic stability of self-reliant, law abiding, and hard working citizenry."
By resourcefulness of Rebuelta, planting materials of Trichantera gigantean, Rensonei and Flemingea, given free by supporters of Mayor Lachica were recently delivered by Mr. Abel Policarpio, employee of LGU-Kalibo.
T. gigantean is protein rich, proven effective for optimum growth of hogs. As supplement, it saves 30 – 35 percent cost of feeds. Flemingea and Rensonei are legumes, protein rich too. Being legumes, they improve soil by fixing free nitrogen from the air.
Mayor Lachica hopes the OMAS will enjoy campaigning for balanced and healthful ecology by extending information about top-quality feeds for livestocks which commonly damaged environ-ment by abused grazing.
Livestock raising is recommended project for senior citizens as livestock provides leisure and livelihood. /MP
