In a heartening milestone for local agriculture, the Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) has officially reached 60,000 online followers—a strong sign of growing public support for the country’s carabao industry.
From the quiet farms of rural Luzon to mobile phones across the nation, the DA-PCC’s message of innovation, empowerment, and rural development is making its way into more Filipino homes, one post at a time.
Strength in Numbers: Farmers and Followers Unite
This achievement reflects more than just numbers—it represents a community that continues to believe in the power of carabao-based farming to uplift rural livelihoods, promote food security, and support sustainable agriculture.
With thousands of farmers, livestock raisers, youth, and agricultural advocates tuning in daily, DA-PCC’s online platform has become a trusted source of news, updates, and opportunities in the dairy and livestock sector.
Empowering Communities Through Knowledge and Innovation
The PCC, under the Department of Agriculture, works to improve the productivity of carabaos, promote the use of dairy products, and enhance the income of smallholder farmers. Their efforts include artificial insemination, carabao breeding, milk processing, training programs, and access to market linkages.
Through its strong online presence, DA-PCC continues to share practical tips, showcase success stories, and promote programs that benefit communities in both remote and urban areas.
“Padayon, Kakalabawan!”
In celebration of this digital milestone, DA-PCC expressed gratitude to its growing network of supporters with the message: “From the fields to your newsfeed, your trust and support strengthen our mission to innovate, empower, and transform lives. Padayon, kakalabawan!”
This Cebuano term, “Padayon,” meaning “to continue,” is a fitting reminder that the journey toward rural development and food sustainability is a shared responsibility—and it’s far from over.
With more voices now echoing the call for better support to farmers and stronger agricultural systems, the agency is set to widen its reach and impact even more lives in the years to come.
