To our FB Friends and page visitors : we have deliberately paused our FB page posts to give way to the recent 2022 Election and related events.. hopefully upon the assumption of the new administration and the appointment of the Secretary of Agriculture.. by then, we should have some idea of the direction our agri sector will be going.. we hope to recalibrate and/or align our advocacy accordingly.

See you on our next post.
