Agriculture Secretary William Dar (third from left) and Indian Ambassador to the Philippines Shambu Kumaran inaugurate the demo unit of a new modular-on-farm solar-powered cold storage facility developed by India at the DA-Agriculture Training Institute (ATI) headquarters in Quezon City Friday (June 25).
According to Dar, the new technology will be a big boost to farmers for them to keep their produce fresh for a longer period, especially those in rural areas where electricity is still unavailable. (DQ)
