Tanudan, Kalinga – Some 207 families in Tanudan could now experience a better life with the turn-over of P8.3 million worth Rehabilitated Gaang Footpath and P1.3 million worth Pongod Bawbao Communal Irrigation System to the Local Government Unit of Tanudan.


According to John Ryan Awingan, Executive Assistant of Mayor Jaedicke Rhoss Dagadag, the 230 meter-long CIS is expected to cover 50 hectares of agriculture production area for rice in Barangays Lubo, Babbanoy, and Upper Lubo. It also covers a potential area for vegetable production serving as a source of livelihood to farmers in the area.


Crops being cultivated in the service areas aside from rice and vegetables are beans, root crops, fruits, and coffee.


The 2.5-kilometer footpath, on the other hand, will serve the 110 households in Gaang providing them safer and more accessible path decreasing travel time, increase savings as it will help reduce the cost of manual hauling in transporting agricultural commodities.


With this, agricultural productivity is expected to increase as farmers will be encouraged to go into competitive rice and vegetable farming activities.

“Dakkel met lang nga tulong iti Community iti Ga-ang ken Dacalan, dagidiay bisita ta saanen a pitak ti pagnaan,” Awingan added.


As recalled, the projects which were implemented through the Department of Agriculture - Integrated Natural Resources and Environmental Management Project (DA-INREMP) commenced in October 2020 and were accomplished on different dates. The CIS was completed in September 2020 while the footpath was done in February 2021.


Awingan said the projects were not completed on their set date due to weather conditions.


Meantime, Mayor Dagadag expressed gratitude to DA-INREMP for delivering said services to the people of Tanudan as he assured that these will be sustained.

“Agpaspasalamat nak iti kinaimbag ti Apo a namarswa kanya tayu ta maysa manen ti Tanudan a nabendisyunan.
