00:00President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. led the distribution of various heavy equipment
00:06by the National Irrigation Administration in Pampanga.
00:09He hopes this will help in increasing the production of our farmers.
00:14This is Benji Durango's report.
00:18This is the result of the second tranche
00:21of the three-year refleting program of the National Irrigation Administration.
00:25This is where the buckets, multi-purpose truck, hauling truck, and many others grow.
00:30After the ribbon-cutting of House Speaker Martin Rumualdez,
00:33President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. arrived.
00:36To ensure the sustainability of our irrigation systems to avoid losses
00:41and to promote more efficient use of water resources
00:46that will in turn produce better and more crops.
00:50141 different operating and maintenance equipment
00:54will be turned over today to the National Irrigation Administration.
00:58This amounted to P776 million pesos.
01:02By 2025, we will roll out the third tranche
01:06of equipment amounting to around P1 billion pesos.
01:10It's a lot. The government still has a lot to procure.
01:13It's a need. It's a fleet modernization.
01:18It's a need so that our irrigation systems will be organized and expanded.
01:23Not only the farmers will benefit from these equipment
01:27because it will also be a great help to avoid diluvia.
01:32This is where the rice and rice husks are stored.
01:35It's a pump for the irrigation of the river.
01:37Buckets like this will help with the desilting of the rivers here.
01:41It's multi-purpose.
01:44When the irrigation canals are cleaned,
01:47I told the NIA Administrator,
01:49we can use it to irrigate the rivers
01:53because it's long-arm.
01:55It's a big thing.
01:57And if there are trash cans,
01:59we can also use this long-arm bucket.
02:03The President also promised that
02:05with the modernization of the agricultural sector,
02:07nothing should be left behind.
02:09We are continuously looking for solutions
02:13to improve the production of rice
02:17and to increase your income.
02:20That's why we will help
02:23to create a prosperous and prosperous New Philippines.
02:28And at the same time,
02:29to improve the country,
02:30to improve the livelihood of our farmers.
