FMR’s HELP BOOST FARMERS’ INCOME - DA

DEPARTMENT of Agriculture Undersecretary Emerson U. Palad (right) explains that farm-to-market roads (FMRs) have a tremendous impact in the lives of Filipinos in the countryside by increasing accessibility from production area to the market, thus creating a multiplier effect in stimulating economic activity in rural areas. He added that under the PRDP, the DA aims to increase incomes of rural agri producers by at least 30%, in which FMRs can contribute a lot by providing strategic and climate-resilient networks of roads for rural farmers. # Source - (DA-AFID)- www.da.gov.ph
