Senator Imee Marcos vowed on Saturday to push for funds to retrofit the Magat Dam in Isabela to support irrigation expansion in the area.
According to the National Irrigation Administration, the forum was conducted to strengthen the linkages and partnership of the agency with farmers by promoting transparency in irrigation development and the implementation of NIA’s irrigation projects.
"Also, this forum aims to discuss the convergence programs of different government agencies for the farmer-irrigators, particularly on their plans and activities on hunger mitigation, food and nutrition security, poverty alleviation, and wealth creation," the NIA said. —
