<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">A five (5)-day training was conducted to equip the participants with the knowledge and basic hands-on training regarding the concepts and principles of Integrated Farming System. It was participated by a total of 32 participants which consist of IAs and representatives of National Irrigation Administration - Irrigated Rice Production Enhancement Project </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">(NIA-IRPEP) Region 8 Office. Lectures on different topics including soil management, organic farming and vermicomposting were provided to sustain farm productivity. Participants were also given hands-on activities and educational tours to improve their understanding on the principles and concepts lectured.</span></span><br />

Likewise, participants were able to formulate their crop calendar and gained knowledge in the efficient allocation of farm area to different uses. Based on the farm planning activity conducted, the participants were able to learn the principles and concepts of Integrated Farming System. They were able to apply the technical skills in IFS in farm planning and appreciate the practical application of the knowledge on soils and the properties of soil, simple farm recording and book keeping.</span><br />

Participants were given opportunity to apply the principles and concepts learned from the training by means of implementation and technical application thus the monitoring takes place. Moreover, as what the institute promote, share and teach on how appropriate components of farm can maximize productivity.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333;">Presently, two waiting sheds are now available along the way to CRTD. These waiting sheds are located on both sides of the highway to serve as landmark to those coming from Calamba or from Sta.Cruz, Laguna. (<span style="font-size: +0;"><span style="font-size: +0;">see below</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> Location Map</span></span>).<br /><br />With the help of PBSP-CRTD and permission of the Barangay officials of Bangyas, these waiting sheds were painted in bright yellow, with the PBSP logo.<br /><br />Now, with these sheds as landmarks, it would be easier to locate CRTD.</span></div>

During the first part, the six Nepalese extension workers were trained on Agricultural Extension and Communication Skills for Effective Extension Work. This training was held at CRTD training center at Calauan, Laguna last December 4 to 7, 2008. The resource persons of this training-workshop were Dr. Roger Cuyno, for Agricultural Extension, and the team from the College of Development Communication, University of the Philippines Los Baños, headed by Ms. Mildred Moscoso, for the Communication Skills.<br /><br />The second part of the study tour was the visit to the different community development project sites of PBSP and dialogue with some of PBSP-assisted cooperatives in the Visayas Region. This tour covered areas in Bohol, Cebu, and Iloilo.<br /><br />The participants of this batch of study tour were junior technicians and junior technical assistants of ATEIP and Nepal government. The group was headed by Mr. Kanchan Raj Pandey, Senior Agriculture Economist of the Department of Agriculture in Hariharbhawan, Lalitpur, Nepal.<br /><br />This study tour gathered positive feedback from the participants and coordinators. "I am impressed with your organization's endeavor to make sustained local institutions which are working to uplift socio-economic condition of the needy people. As I am also coordinating Public-Private-Partnership projects, it was my great opportunity to learn a lot from your projects- designed on PPP approach," Pandey said.<br /><em>(To view Kanchan Pandey's letter of thanks to PBSP, through Mr. Arlan Adorada, Officer-in-Charge of PBSP-CRTD, click on this link: <a href="http://thanksfromkanchan.blogspot.com">thanks from Kanchan</a>.)</em><br /><br /><em></em>ATEIP Nepal is a project of the Japan International Cooperation Agency. <strong></strong><strong></strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4BOoUA7gfYYOj6Sc-2OSn4vrZPLQMv1eo6TymHDsf4HlRZbsKVFSm954e-sDcUCmlu7xI8tlRKfcmN-rsWtcO-IW2j2BL5kfViIodpz2lHyy14VDEK4VRA0MdmsUVAr6-YuzhmGyUSLo/s1600-h/DSC00417.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288069048809150082" style="DISPLAY: block;
