On the culmination of the National Women’s Month celebration, the Department of Agriculture staged the “Empowering Growth: Women in Agripreneurship”, which highlighted three successful women-led agri-enterprises representing the crops, livestock, and fisheries subsectors: Costales Nature Farm, Sta. Maria Dairy – Catmon Multi-Purpose Cooperative, and Mangan by Iman, respectively.

The event underscored the role of Filipina agripreneurs in bridging gender gaps and breaking barriers towards agricultural development, economic progress, and national transformation during the culmination of the 2024 National Women’s Month celebration. ### (photos by Alan Jay Jacalan, DA-AFID)
