Gov’t crossbreeding program boosts Region 2 dairy carabao population

The government’s crossbreeding program has significantly boosted the population of dairy carabaos in Region 2. San Agustin, Isabela stands out as the “Crossbred Carabao Capital of the Philippines” due to its remarkable achievements in carabao crossbreeding.

This endeavor has yielded impressive results, with the municipal agriculture office reporting 2,854 crossbred carabaos in June 2023 in San Agustin. The Philippine Dairy Carabao is a product of a continuous backcrossing method conducted by researchers at DA-PCC at the University of the Philippines Los Baños under the guidance of Ester Flores, National Genetic Improvement Program Coordinator and geneticist of DA-PCC.
