At least 40 farmers and local entrepreneurs in Bago City, Negros Occidental, are selling farm produce at affordable prices to launch the “Kadiwa ng Pangulo” program on Thursday. Held at the Manuel Y. Torres Memorial Coliseum and Cultural Center, the event preceded the establishment of a regular Kadiwa station at the Marhil covered court in Barangay Poblacion every 15th and 30th of the month starting Aug. 30.
Organized by the Local Economic Development and Investment Promotion Office and the Office of the City Agriculturist, the “Kadiwa ng Pangulo” gathers farmers and entrepreneurs to sell rice, vegetables, fruits, ready-to-eat food, processed goods, and other locally-produced products. Rice is being sold at PHP25 per kilogram for residents belonging to the marginalized sectors, particularly persons with disabilities and senior citizens, who can buy a maximum of five kilos of rice each.
