Nag-abot ng tulong pinansyal ang tanggapan ni Sen. Imee Marcos sa mga pamilya ng 5 rescuer na nasawi sa pananalasa ng bagyong Karding sa San Miguel, Bulacan. Nagpapasalamat ang mga ito sa tulong pinansyal ni Sen. Imee Marcos.
Alfalfa, the protein-rich bush-like forage crop ideal for livestock production, grows well in the small demo plot in Polomolok, South Cotabato.
At 58 days old, the Alfalfa planted at 500-meters-above-sea-level has reached a height of 12 to 18 inches.
While its maturity for harvest starts at 70 days, the Alfalfa has already started to flower, an indication that it could already be harvested.
The Alfalfa Demo Farm is one of the special projects of the Southseas Agri-Aqua Ventures, Inc., a small company which I, former Senator Panfilo Lacson, Fil-Am farmer-scientist Rocky French and four other friends formed recently.
This is a major breakthrough in Philippine Agriculture because it has long been believed that Alfalfa could not be grown locally.
Alfalfa is grown in the U.S. and Europe mainly for hay production for Cattle and small ruminants feeds and now sells for $250 per ton.
While the economic viability of growing Alfalfa in the Philippines is still subject to study and validation, the fact that it grows under local conditions is enough encouragement for us to conduct deeper research and establish demo farms in other locations.

TINGNAN | Pang. Marcos, nagsasagawa ng aerial inspectîon sa mga lugar na sinalanta ng #KardingPH
Kabilang sa mga lugar na iniinspeksyon ni PBBM ang Bulacan, Nueva Ecija at Tarlac. |
After our aerial inspection today, we found some areas that are still inundated with water. Nueva Ecija and Aurora are without power. We are sending gensets now.
But generally, the damage to public and private infrastructure is manageable. Government services are almost at full function.
Main road thoroughfares are passable, communication is up and running. #KardingPH
