Upgrading genetics for better prices
Caraga’s Best is a three-way partnership between Pilmico, Winrock International and the United States Department of Agriculture. This partnership aims to upgrade the swine genetic profile through donation of replacement gilts in an attempt to command better market prices for backyard farmers come harvest season.
On top of the gilt replacement donations to Caraga’s best, to date, Pilmico has donated a total of 726 piglets, all dispersed during the Mahalin Pagkaing Atin activations nationwide.
