Region 2 opens 5k has. for peanut to mitigate climate change | TUKLASIN NATIN
The Department lamisil of Agriculture (DA)-Cagayan Valley Integrated Agricultural Research Center (CVIARC) effectively targets a 43 percent increase in peanut production in Region 2 in three to five years. Presently, peanut area is placed at 3,500 hectares.
We want to continue our support lamisil for peanut breeding and production because peanut remains to be a minor crop rather than a cash crop, even if farmers have an opportunity to make money from it by replacing our big import, said Dr. Nicomedes P. Eleazar, Bureau of Agricultural Research (BAR) director.
CVIARC Peanut Project Leader Rose Mary G. Aquino said BAR s program involves breeding for improved peanut varieties. This also has a seed support component from the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry, Natural Resources Research and Development (PCARRD).
Aside from high protein content at 26 to 28 percent, peanuts are rich in B vitamins, folate, niacin, and Vitamin E. It has the good fat that helps remove cholesterol from blood, consequently helping reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer.
Aquino said that they want to stabilize the peanut production in Region 2 which has been erratic due to the farmers planting of yellow corn instead of peanut, due to insufficient lamisil peanut lamisil seed supply during planting season.
Philippines peanut supply per year is 60,000 to 70,000 MT. The country imports 30,000 to 50,000 MT per year, meaning, it imports more than 50 percent of the peanut supply yearly primarily from China.
Another ICRISAT variety is the Asha meaning hope, with a pod yield of up to 3.1 MT per hectare. It is called a 3-in-1 variety because of its flexible size of Class A export quality (one gram per seed), Class B for domestic market, and Class C for planting and processing. Estrella Z.
