This project is seen as part of a larger effort by the government to empower rural communities and enhance agricultural production in the region. The partnership between DA12-SAAD and local farming groups such as the Idaoman RIC not only provides financial support but also ensures that the beneficiaries receive the necessary resources to sustain their ventures long-term.
As the project moves forward, the success of the Idaoman RICโs Mallard Duck Production will not only contribute to local food security but also serve as a model for other agricultural communities in Cotabato. Through initiatives like these, the DA12-SAAD program continues to drive rural development, fostering resilience and growth among smallholder farmers in Mindanao.
