TO INCREASE the demand for locally sourced carabao’s milk and boost the income of carabao farmers, a government agency is aiming to provide carabao’s milk for the government’s school-based feeding program.This commitment came from the Philippine Carabao Center , an agency under the Department of Agriculture, and its assisted cooperatives.The PCC said it aims to supply 50 percent of the milk needed for the school-based feeding program by next year.
Arnold Lucero, manager of Lamac Multi-purpose Cooperative’s processing center, which produces carabao’s milk, told SunStar Cebu that they are tasked with supplying some school divisions in both Western and Central Visayas regions.He said they are expected to deliver carabao’s milk to around 79,000 students identified as undernourished K-6 in Central Visayas.
