BALIANGAO, Misamis Occidental– A Liquid Quick Freeze (LQF) machine worth P 4.65 million had been turned-over by the National Agribusiness Corp. (Nabcor), to the local government unit (LGU), here, yesterday, Aug. 8. | |||
This brings to seven (7), the total number of LGU’s, in region 10, that has received the facility. The other six (6) are: Sapang Dalaga and Sinacaban also in Mis. Occ., Sultan Naga Dimaporo (SND) and Tubod, in Lanao Norte, Balingasag in Mis. Oriental, and Mambajao in Camiguin. | |||
Established through a counter-parting scheme, the machine was provided by Nabcor, an attached agency of the Department of Agriculture (DA), while the shed, single phase line, water system and manpower for the initial operation of the machine is shouldered by the LGU at an estimated cost of Php500,000. | |||
Ma. Jayd-da Mayoralgo, Nabcor Vice-President, said the LQF uses a revolutionary method of freezing through the use of a super conductive liquid that can instantly freeze agri-fishery products due to its very low temperature, preserving its flavor and freshness. | |||
She said aside from its freezing capability, the LQF can also make ice blocks which can benefit not only the fishing industry but other business establishments like restaurants. | |||
“It is envisioned that the LQF will be treated as a business enterprise and when put into maximum use will trigger the development of the agri-fishery industry in the area and contribute to the economic development of the locality,” Mayoralgo added. | |||
Set up in Barangay Mitacas, Baliangao town, the LQF machine has been considered a new milestone for the agri- fishery industry of this coastal area in the province with its vast marine resources. | |||
Meanwhile, Regional Director Visa Dimerin of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), region 10, said they are in full support to the town’s endeavor by encouraging the locality to engage in projects supportive of developing fishery production. | |||
Present during the LQF turn over and blessing were: Mayor Svetlana P. Jaloslos, Vice-Mayor Agapito E. Yap III, Sangguniang Bayan members, and Municipal Agriculturist Jude Bueno, local fisherfolk. | |||
Also present were Provincial Agricultural Officer Jose Satorre, Nabcor Area Manager Samuel Simbajon and Ma. Tita B. Rodriquez, Head, Presidential Management Staff in the region. | |||
