The Department of Agriculture (DA) has officially handed over on December 9, 2022 a P20M Cold Storage Facility, along with 92 palettes and 110 plastic crates, to a farmers’ association in Aritao, Nueva Vizcaya.

This high-value crop facility has a capacity of about 10,000 bags of onion, garlic, and ginger.

According to regional officials of the DA, one more facility is expected to rise next year.
