The event opened with words by DA Senior Undersecretary Domingo Panganiban and French Ambassador to the Philippines H.E.

French Ambassador to the Philippines, Michele Boccoz, highlighted the importance of cooperation between the two countries to ensure food security amidst the challenges brought about by the pandemic and the current global situation. She emphasized that food security is a priority for everyone around the world. Boccoz also expressed interest in developing cooperatives in the Philippines as a means to achieve this goal.
The panel of speakers at the forum includes Agricultural Attache to EU Kristine Jeanne Yap, Bureau of Exportation and International Partnership Officer-in-Charge Martin Deruaz, and DA-Farm and Fisheries Clustering and Consolidation Program Director Shandy Hubilla.
“Our program aims to promote the strategy of clashing consolidation because of the small scale of our farmers,” he said. “We want to look at this process as enabling process, an empowering one for our cooperatives and association for them to achieve economies of scale and increase bargaining power.”
