Recovering Marawi

Author: DA-AFID | 18 July 2018

Agriculture Secretary hands-over to Mayor Majul Usman Gandamra the certificate of award for various agricultural interventions including 46 farm tractors, delivered by the Department of Agriculture (DA) thru its Regional Field Unit in Region X on July 17, 2018 to the City of Maraw. The city bore the wrath of the five-month long takeover of terrorists from May to October last year, resulting to the displacement of 350,000 residents and damages amounting to P11.5 billion. The DA pledged to assist in the rehabilitation efforts for Marawi, including the establishment of Barangay Food Terminals and provision for other farm facilities such as solar-powered irrigation systems and rice harvester. ### (Photo by Alan Jay Jacalan/DA-AFID)
