Coconut-Carabao Development Project takes off in Tubigon, Bohol Oct 2020 Bubalus Coconut-Carabao,Tubigon, Bohol,DA-PCC at USF By Leinefe Aton The Department of Agriculture-Philippine Carabao Center at Ubay Stock Farm (DA-PCC at USF), Department of Agriculture-Philippine Coconut Authority (DA-PCA), Office of the Provincial Veterinarian (OPV) of Bohol, Local Government Unit (LGU) of Tubigon, and the Libertad Multipurpose Cooperative (MPC) conducted a strategic planning workshop for the implementation of Carabao-based Business Improvement Network (CBIN) in Tubigon last November 5-7. DA-PCC at USF and DA-PCA together with the OPV of Bohol, LGU-Tubigon and LMPC start off the strategic planning workshop to develop a concrete plan for the implementation of CBIN. Said activity launched the newest partnership initiative between DA-PCC and DA-PCA dubbed as the “Coconut-Carabao Development Project or CCDP” in which the Libertad MPC of Tubigon, Bohol is one of the beneficiaries. The workshop aimed to develop a concrete three-year operations plan that will guide the Program Management Team (PMT) composed of the aforementioned offices and the co-op throughout the implementation of the project. This event was conducted after a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed last September 12 between DA-PCC and DA-PCA. The MOA stipulates that the DA-PCA will allocate funding for the project amounting to Php140 million, which will be downloaded to DA-PCC on a staggered basis. Said amount will fund development interventions in 17 project sites related to the implementation of the CCDP. The DA-PCC, on the other hand, will conduct orientations, social preparation and capability-building activities for coconut farmer-beneficiaries on carabao production, processing and marketing. Both parties shall ensure that the identified project site is operational not later than two years after the MOA signing, otherwise, another eligible beneficiary shall be identified. “For this project, the town of Tubigon through the Libertad MPC was selected as the project site because it is an identified coconut area in the province. We also considered that it is strategically located, which makes it a good dairy site,” Emeliano Romero, PCA-Bohol Manager said. “This particular project in Tubigon, which is worth almost Php10,000,000, will be used for the procurement of 50 dairy buffaloes, construction of a dairy processing plant and a dairy box outlet.” Dr. Gundolino Bajenting CBIN coordinator, DA-PCC at USF
