DONATION DRIVE: EGGcellent Care: Free egg distribution for BSU students in need.

Organized by the Society of Animal Science Students (SASS)

In light of the recent typhoon that has affected the lives of many, we are coming together in the spirit of care and community service.

On August 12, 2026, from 8:00 AM onwards in front of the College of Agriculture, BSU students affected by the calamity are entitled to receive six pieces of fresh eggs each. This will be on first-come first-served basis. Until supplies last.

This initiative is lovingly brought to us by Department of Animal Science(DAS) Hen Haven under the project "Performance and Behavioral Responses of Layers Raised Under Cage and Cage-free Rearing Systems" funded by the the Animal Kingdom Foundation. Their kindness reminds us that even in difficult times, compassion and solidarity can bring hope and nourishment to those who need it most.

Eggs may be simple, but they symbolize strength, renewal, and the promise of brighter days ahead. Through this donation drive, we are reminded that small acts of generosity can make a big difference in rebuilding lives and lifting spirits.

The College of Agriculture extends its heartfelt gratitude to the Animal Kingdom Foundation for their support. Your partnership is a shining example of how care and collaboration can help communities rise stronger after adversity.

Together, let us move forward with resilience, unity, and gratitude.

The College of Agriculture successfully conducted its Techno-Caravan on April 17, 2026, at the Apanberang Farmers’ Association in Pacso, Kabayan, Benguet, bringing agricultural support services and technical knowledge directly to local farmers.

Held as part of the college’s extension activity and in line with the association’s General Assembly, the initiative aimed to strengthen sustainable farming practices through the sharing of science-based technologies and on-site consultations.

Participants were encouraged to bring soil and plant samples, as the faculty members from the College of Agriculture provided hands-on services including soil analysis, pest and disease identification, and management recommendations. An open forum was also conducted, allowing farmers to raise different concerns and receive direct solutions or recommendations from the roster of experts present at the event.

The activity underscored the commitment of the College of Agriculture to extend research-based innovations to rural farming communities.
