Jackfruit: the Proud Crop of Region 8, Philippines

The Department of Agriculture Field Unit No. 8 (DA-RFU-8) chose jackfruit in 1996 as its banner crop under the High Value Commercial Crop (HVCC) program. Under the Jackfruit Research and Development Program, the varietal collection and selection started. This resulted to the establishment of the Jackfruit Germplasm Collection. Selected varieties were mass produced and introduced to interested farmers under the Plant Now Pay Later (PNPL) Program. Five to six years later, the jackfruit plants under the PNPL program have started fruiting.

We may go roaming far and wide
Throughout the breadth of land
But still we'll hold and esteem with pride
Our lovely school by the murmuring strait
Beloved alma mater, mem'ries of you shall remain...
