One shredder machine will also be turned over to the Municipal
Eco-Park for massive production of organic fertilizers through
vermi-composting.
Carampatana said the machines manufactured by Davao Techno Craft based on Nabunturan, Compostela Valley arrived last week and a demo was then held on how to operate them.
She said the local government acquired the machines through the Bottoms-Up Budgeting (BUB) of the national government’s Department of Agriculture (DA).
She added the shredder machine will be used to pulverize biodegradable materials like rice stalks and hulls to become organic fertilizers.
