A nutrient management expert from DA-Philippine Rice Research Institute said that farmers must maximize the benefits of natural sources of nutrients.

Amidst the rising price of fertilizer in the country, the Department of Agriculture-Philippine Rice Research Institute will promote the use of balanced fertilizer during this dry season Lakbay Palay, April 6-7.

The Department of Agriculture-Philippine Rice Research Institute's Palayamanan farm demonstrated how incorporating a vertical garden within a rice-based farming system can increase streams of income.

In recognition of the Filipino farmers’ achievement in 2021, the record high palay output is showcased in this year’s dry season paddy art at the Department of Agriculture-Philippine Rice Research Institute’s Future Rice Farm in Nueva Ecija.

Fifteen new inbred varieties of rice will be introduced to farmers through techno-demo farms under the various extension programs of DA-PhilRice and its branch stations.
