22-May-2009 (17 years 22 days ago)Hog raisers and the Department of Agriculture (DA) have agreed to consider initiatives to improve productivity during a meeting in Quezon City.
In a statement, the DA said it would step up the construction of cold storage plants, slaughterhouses and other postharvest facilities to cut growers’ postproduction losses and allow them to improve the storage of their products from their farms to the retail markets.
