Kaya ba ng Pilipino maging world-class farmer?
"Kaya ba natin? Kaya ba nating ituring ang agrikultura bilang propesyon ng talino, dignidad, at kinabukasan? Kaya ba nating maniwala na ang Filipino farmer ay maaaring maging world-class?
For decades, Philippine agriculture has carried a quiet contradiction. It feeds the nation, sustains rural communities, and anchors food security yet it is often treated as the least of professions. Farming is praised in speeches but sidelined in practice, imagined as labor-intensive rather than knowledge-driven, and seen as a last option rather than a first choice."
