FARMERS of the Casili Farmers Association in Barangay Casili, Mandaue City, have learned hydroponics farming and received organic fertilizers from the Department of Agriculture in Central Visayas under a national program to increase food production that has also inadvertently enabled the city to reduce waste and save money.The turnover ceremony was held Friday, Oct. 13, 2023 at the Casili Community Garden.
Though unable to provide figures, Cortes said that with the project, they were able to transform more organic waste into fertilizers and use recyclable waste, such as plastic bottles, to serve as do-it-yourself plant pots, which contributed to the city’s decreasing waste collection.According to Cortes, Mandaue’s waste is 27 percent organic, 36 percent recyclable, 35 percent residual, and two percent special waste such as treated medical waste, sludge and grease trap waste.
