For more knowledge about organic backyard farming, let's watch and hear the advices from Hon. Dante L. Fernandez.

"Spend less, Garden more!"

According to the Global Hunger Index Survey 2022, the Philippines ranked 69th out of 121 countries in terms of hunger and malnutrition. This highlights the need for the country to prioritize the improvement of agricultural productivity and efficiency while also implementing cost-saving measures to address food insecurity.

Now, with the nonstop growth of the population, the consequences of industrial agriculture have become one of the world's main concerns. The traditional wide-scale farming method of using herbicides and pesticides is causing harm to the environment and human health.

But how can we know if the food we eat was grown in contaminated soil with contaminated fertilizers, what pesticides and herbicides were used on it, whether it is genetically modified or not, whether it was irrigated with contaminated water, and whether it was grown sustainably?
The solution is: Let's grow our own!

What do we get from organic backyard farming?
With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us appreciated the importance of home gardening and growing our own food. Baranggay Bulac, Talavera, Nueva Ecija, leads the way in promoting organic backyard farming to its people, providing them with fresh and healthy produce that is free from harmful chemicals and pesticides. By growing our own food, people in Barangay Bulac are working together to plant vegetables in their own backyards, saving money and promoting a healthier lifestyle for their families.

Let's work together to make nutritious food for a better future!

Healthy food, healthy soils, healthy plants, and healthy habitats are prioritized along with agricultural yield in organic farming. To enhance soil quality and increase organic soil matter, organic farmers use biological fertilizer inputs and management techniques including cover cropping and crop rotation. Organic farmers increase the amount of organic matter in the soil, which improves the soil's capacity to absorb water and lessens the effects of drought and flooding. Increased soil organic matter also aids in the soil's ability to take in and store the carbon and other nutrients required to develop healthy crops, which are then better equipped to fend off pests and illnesses.
