THE Department of Agriculture (DA) Regional Field Office Central Luzon Rice Program led the kick-off ceremony of the National Rice Awareness Month (NRAM) on November 3 at the DA Conference Room.
Presidential Proclamation No. 524 s. 2004 declared the month of November as NRAM.
With the theme “Be RICEponsibly healthy,” the celebration aims to encourage every Filipino to do their small share of RICEponsibility by valuing every grain of rice and eating healthier rice to benefit themselves, other consumers, rice farmers and the country as a whole.
Regional Executive Director Crispulo G. Bautista Jr. enjoined DA employees to celebrate rice-awareness month.
Rice Program Coordinator Lowell Rebillaco presented the month-long celebration activities that include Quiz Bee on Rice Matters, Poster-Making Contest, social media information campaigns and radio plugs.
