SEN. Imee Marcos is urging the Department of Agriculture to review its Memorandum Order No. 32 that limits the type of fertilizer farmers could use.
“Biofertilizer does benefit the soil but will it match previous levels of rice production?” asked the senator. “The numerical data in MO 32 must be carefully recalculated so that the purpose of using biofertilizer in rice production can be closer to reality,” the senator added. As for predicting rice harvests, Marcos mentioned that the uncertain content of nitrogen in biofertilizers is the reason why it may be less reliable than the clear 46-0-0 NPK ratio of urea that farmers use in planting.
