Objective:
This is an on-farm replication of researches and techno-demo of mostly funded projects in partnership with farmer groups or communities. This was started during the early years of the station, was discontinued, and was revived in 2015. In principle, this engagement uses the facilities and resources of partner groups or communities, such as their area and labor force, to replicate studies and technology on a certain commodity (either crops or animals).
Specifically, this undertaking aims to replicate, prove and/or compare the results of certain experiments conducted on the station with that of the particular area partner. It also seeks to recommend adoption of the technology or production system by the farmers/practitioners once the tests/trials or demonstration proves viability and productivity. Lastly, it seeks to assist the adopted farming communities in solving their farming problems, and to provide them with further knowledge in managing their farm products towards sustainability, through logical farming enterprise.
