GREEN STALKS Pangasinan farmers tend to their rice field. —WILLIE LOMIBAO
MANILA, Philippines – The Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM) has launched its online platform designed to help farmers maximize productivity and profitability by enabling them to make better planting decisions.
Called BSWM FertMap (fertilizer map), it is a georeferenced database that consolidates soil data and generates fertilizer recommendations depending on the crop that a farmer plans to cultivate.
“This will maximize the yield by determining the period when it is most profitable to plant. Wala nang hula hula (No more guessing),” BSWM director Gina Nilo says.
