PBBM encourages Farmers and fishermen to enroll in Department of Agriculture's insurance program

Marcos on stage during his speech in Isabela

President Marcos Jr. encouraged fishermen and farmers to enroll their farms in the Department of Agriculture's (DA) extensive insurance program during his speech on Friday at the distribution of Certificates of Land Ownership Award (CLOAs) and Certificates of Condonation with Release of Mortgage (COCROMs) in Isabela. The program was issued under the Philippine Crop Insurance Corporation and covers all types of crop production, livestock, and fisheries.

"Ito pong insurance na ito sa mga pananim o kagamitan sa pangingisda ay napakahalaga, lalung-lalo na sa mga rehiyon na madalas tamaan ng bagyo o kalamidad,” President Marcos Jr. emphasizes the provision that farmers can get from the program on the report of PCO.

The PCIC insurance programs are greater behind the crops, livestock, and equipment because they also offer Credit and Life Term Insurance. This offer gives protection to agricultural producers, fishermen, and other agricultural stakeholders, including their family members and relatives, within the fourth degree of consanguinity or affinity, according to PCIC Brochure.
