'Agriboost' hikes vegetable production

Butuan's Agriboost program increased vegetable production in the city and helped farmers hike their incomes.

Pierre Anthony D. Joven, head of the Butuan City Agriculture and Veterinary Department (CAVD), said that in the past, farmers in the city were demotivated and called for reforms as the city's agri-ecosystem was dominated by traders, resulting in low vegetable production.
