Rizal Philippines |  September 15, 2014



Nagkakaisang Magsasaka  Agri PMPC

Nagkakaisang Magsasaka - an outstanding cooperative

From Philstar - NE fast becoming the rice hybrid capital of the Philippines

From Landbank - Nagkakaisang Magsasaka  wins first place in Gawad Pitak award, gets P500,000 in fixed asset prize.


The Nagkakaisang Magsasaka Primary Agricultural Multipurpose Cooperative  headed by Ricardo Buenaventura was featured in SNSK (Suwak na Suwak sa Kabuhayan) featured in Channel 2.

The feature was sponsored by Land Bank of the Philippines.


The cooperative showed the way in:

1.  Palay production of 250 to 300 cavans per hectare (using the SL 8 or SL 18 variety?)

2.  Having its own rice mill and rice packaging with dryer;

3.  Its own office.

Due to this, while upping rice production, most of their members are millionaires.

SL Agritech has shown that if you have 10 hectares under contract growing from SL, you could really be a millionaire.
