Study Tour
During our tour in Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) Gene Pool, first thing I’ve
learned that they are taking care almost five hundreds Buffalos came from three origin
genes: Bulgarian, Italian and Brazilian. The three were imported a long time ago and the
batched they are taking care of are their 34 th generation. I also learned that a one buffalo
can produce 6-8 litter milk in one day. Next, I watched how the laborers were getting
milk from buffalo. Lastly, before we headed to Milkakrem, I learned why PCC was
established.
The study tour encouraged me to that kind of business because of their mandate,
mission and vision, My grandfather owns a carabao and the study tour inspired me to
talk to my grandfather about the benefits of his carabao. Also, for the rural farmers, for
them to believe and encourage that they are not only ‘farmers’ but also their carabao
can be a source of milk, meat and also to help them in their living. On our running
business, I will surely offer my support to help ensure implementation in “Promoting
Sustainable Agriculture and Agripreneurship among the Youth from Marginalized
Farming Communities”.
