President Rodrigo Roa Duterte grants an exclusive interview with broadcast icon Ted Failon to answer the pressing issues faced by Filipino farmers in the second part of “Failon Ngayon’s” “Wakas sa Paggapas?” 10th anniversary special this Saturday (November 16) on ABS-CBN and iWant.
In the continuation of the program’s special documentary on the state of Philippine agriculture, Ted uncovers yet again a waste of public funds on equipment and projects that could have benefitted our farmers.
Apart from machinery rendered useless due to their incompatibility to the needs of our farmers, “Failon Ngayon” also discovered equipment worth millions that are merely gathering dust in warehouses.
Adding to the woes of Filipino farmers are irrigation projects that have yet to see the light of day despite budget already allocated for it.
These are just some of the problems that are pushing our farmers to deeper poverty, forcing them to find other work for survival and putting our agriculture industry at risk.
To answer the issues on the state of Philippine agriculture, President Duterte faces Ted in a one-on-one interview that aims to seek solutions, and give hope to our farmers.
