COTABATO – The provincial government of Cotabato, led by Governor Emmylou “Lala” J. Taliño-Mendoza, continues its efforts to address the concerns of Cotabateño farmers by providing additional livelihood opportunities.
In line with this initiative, the “Skills Training on Fish Processing with Value-Adding” was conducted on Monday for seventy (70) participants, including members of 4H and Rural Improvement Club (RIC), President Roxas Fisherfolk Integrated Farmers Association, and President Roxas Women’s Association.
