Pasali Philippines hosts 60-70 farmers from Sultan Kudarat and Saranganie

Excited coffee, vegetable and rice farmers flock in droves of 10 as they arrived from 7 municipalities of Sultan Kudarat and Sarangani in preparation for a agri-technology exposure in the last week of November 2012. Rice farmers went to Kidapawan, vegetable farmers went to East west, and coffee growers went to Mahintana project site, Green Tropics and Nestle' Gensan.
​The exposure is part of the Farmer Alliances for Resources Strengthening and Marketing (FARM) - a project focused on increasing the marketing knowledge of Tri-people communities - that Pasali conducts in partnership with Catholic Relief Services and USDA. 

Their arrival at Pasali's office made the work day festive and particularly inspiring, given that farmers were present from Northern Palimbang, which just last year was torn by armed conflict. ​
