Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Sector (2017-2022)
Transcript of Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Sector (2017-2022)
An integration of the existing R&D agenda of
government agencies conducting R&D in
agriculture, aquatic and natural resources (AANR)
sector and inputs from various stakeholders.
1. Promote complementation in AANR R&D
2. Avoid duplication of R&D efforts
3. Basis of R&D capability building initiatives in the
R&D network
The sector supports Agriculture 4.0 that is smart, green and S&T-based. Thus, consistent with existing rules and regulations and cultural values, the HNRDA shall support: a) techniques to produce food differently such as organic farming and halal production; b) technologies to increase efficiency in the food chain such as urban farming and gene modification; and c) cross-industry technologies such as nanotechnology, AI, drone technology data analytics and other IoT technologies.
The AANR sector supports Farm
Mechanization, as mandated by RA
10601, otherwise known as the
Agricultural and Fisheries
Mechanization Law, to modernize the
sector and increase agricultural
productivity, efficiency and
competitiveness.
