"Kami ay nagpapasalamat because this our first time, we are just so excited to start in our business. Sana maging profitable ito para makatulong kami sa mga members namin at sa future generation na ma encourage namin lalo na ang mga kabataan ngayon,” highlighting the cooperative's vision for sustainable growth and its commitment to empowering its members and the youth through innovative business ventures. This training is invaluable in equipping the Koop King MPC team with the in-depth knowledge required to make well-informed decisions and develop a robust plan for their potential involvement in silage production, ultimately paving the way for a promising new chapter in their cooperative's journey.
