LGU Sogod Participate Jackfruit Production and Management (JACKPAT) Training and Seminar at Southern Leyte State University - Hinunangan Campus

The Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Management Office (PENRMO), in collaboration with Southern Leyte State University – Hinunangan Campus, organized a program on Jackfruit Production and Management (JACKPAT). The event was led by Dr. Wade C. Lim, who delivered the opening remarks and introduced the discussion on jackfruit propagation.

The activity was attended by farmers from various localities across Southern Leyte, with Sogod identified as one of the recipients of the EVIARC Sweet Jackfruit seedlings provided by the provincial government. This initiative supports the vision of Governor Damian G. Mercado to establish Southern Leyte as a leading producer of jackfruit and to develop a thriving jackfruit industry in the province.

Participants were trained in different methods of jackfruit grafting and were also encouraged to raise their own jackfruit seedlings to ensure sustainability and local propagation.
