Other allocations are PHP7.03 million for the high-value crops development program, PHP2.87 million for the rice program, PHP2.29 million for the Kabuhayan at Kaunlaran ng Kababayang Katutubo (4K) Program, and PHP150,000 for the Urban and Peri-Urban Agriculture Program.

“These projects are time-sensitive, and we must remain vigilant in monitoring schedules and progress. Having a clear timeline is essential, and we need to be ready to implement when needed,” Constantino said in a statement.

The proposed budget is under review by the Senate and House of Representatives.

Constantino also emphasized the importance of aligning all project reports with strategic plans and developing a cohesive regional strategy to maximize the impact of the funding. (PNA)
