FILIPINOS should eat more fruits, and farmers should devote more land to fruit trees. That was the message from Lope Nonoy Napao, horticulturist and president of the Negros Occidental Garden Club.
Speaking recently at the club's January general assembly at the Acacia Hotel, Bacolod City, Napao said fruits and fruit farming have many benefits; not only are fruits good for health, but they also offer environmental and economic benefits.
