NEGROS OCCIDENTAL (PIA) -- The COVID-19 pandemic did not dampen the eagerness of 21 Poverty Reduction, Livelihood and Employment Cluster (PRLEC) beneficiaries composed of farmers, fisherfolks, 4Ps beneficiaries and families of former rebels from Barangay San Pablo, Manapla town to complete their training on organic agriculture.
 
They were trained on Producing  Organic Fertilizer (leading to Organic Agriculture Production NC II) conducted by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA).

PRLEC in partnership with the local government of Manapla and Brgy. San Pablo officials of San Pablo honoured the graduates in a ceremony at Don Emilio Miraflores Sr. Memorial Elementary School in Brgy. San Pablo, said TESDA Information Officer Jenie Notchite.
