Mr. Nick Dempo, Chair of Cardava Integrated Inland Farming (CIIF), holds a PhilGAP certificate for the communal banana farm, the first cooperative farm in the Philippines to get a GAP (Good Agricultural Practices) certification.

“the cooperative model enables people with skills, but little or no capital to pool resources to create employment and contribute to economic development”

PLDFI (Prelature of Libmanan Development Foundation) promoted organic farming that improved poor irrigation systems, reduced risks from the use of chemical fertilizers and helps farmers to address the effects of climate change.
