“Congratulations to our two farmers associations for being the recipients of the financial grant through the efforts of our good mayor, Nicholas Yulo, Vice Mayor Ramon Torres and Sangguniang Panlungsod members, especially their strong dedication and determination to help our local farmers,” the City Agriculture Office said during the turnover on March 13.
