Abstract

This project was initiated basically at promoting the rice-based integrated farming system cum mushroom, vegetable and vermicast production as climate change adaptation measures in the low land rain-fed areas. Thirty techno-demo farms were established to showcase the effectiveness of improved straw mushroom, vermin composting and rice production. Technical skills and knowledge of farmer cooperators and adopters were improved through capacity development on production technologies and farming systems. Farmer association was formed and registered to Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). Project visibility and promotions were performed through radio broadcast, trainings, newspapers, IEC development and posting to Bataan official website, 1Bataan.  The project has forge collaboration and partnership with Local Government Unit (LGUs), Agricultural Training Institute (ATI) and Department of Trade and industry for wider promotion and adoption of the technology. The interventions recorded   25.51 % increase on income of farmer beneficiaries.
