It’s a mandate of the National Tobacco Administration to improve the quality of life and uplift the living condition of the tobacco farmers.
During rainy seasons, farmers, especially the wives , worry as to where they get income for their daily needs. They have limited cash to give their children for allowance, fare , baon or merienda, etc. in going to school.
In this regard, as extension workers , let’s show our concern to ease them from being possibly rattled because of worries by introducing and teaching them some easy and simple ways and means of livelihood and income-generating projects.
Making CARROT CAKES is one promising livelihood program to help them.
