For Our Farmers Ph. Inc. – Bayanihan Para sa Magsasaka” extended their appreciation to The Educator, official publication of College of Education, Central Luzon State University, upon receiving a total of 4,500-peso cash donation last January 11, 2021. We express our sincere gratitude for your contribution and support to our local farmers and kababayans affected by the recent typhoons and flooding,” stated the organization. For Our Farmers Ph. Inc. is an organization based in San Carlos, Pangasinan and was established on March 26, 2020. It is a youth-led, non-stock, and a non-profit organization that helps and uplifts local farmers and fisher folks. The organization believes that “People who till the land and feed us should never go hungry.” The monetary donation will directly benefit the organization’s Project Sagip, which provides relief goods and hygiene packs to 12 different areas in the Philippines, and grants a small subsidy to local farmers who lost their crops because of the typhoons. “Right now, we have five ongoing relief operations for our kababayans severely affected by typhoon Rolly and Ulysses,” they mentioned.   The Educator accumulated the funds through their recent extension project. Head Illustrator Trinity Salazar and Literary Editor Elle Nikkita Guzman came up with Art for a Cause, where interested individuals may choose from sample designs with corresponding donation amounts, and receive a customized digital image done by Salazar herself. They were assisted by Editor-in-Chief Maricar Javillonar, Associate Editor Billy Joe Nicolas, and the rest of the staffers of The Educator. Initially, 10 slots were opened to the public, but the duration and scope of the project was extended due to additional donation initiatives. All proceeds went to For Our Farmers Ph. Inc. “We chose to turn over the donations to For Our Farmers because their philosophy resonated with us. We are very thankful to those who donated, because together, we are able to support the organization’s philosophy of valuing the welfare of those who feed us,” stated Ms. Coreen Frias, adviser of The Educator.

To showcase the latest findings and technologies in Cacao, the Central Luzon State University held the Cacao TALKS (Transforming Agriculture through Livelihoods, Knowledge and Sustainability) 2026: A Cacao Value Chain Conference on March 11, 2026, at the RIE Amphitheater. The conference convened over 120 cacao farmers, researchers, and entrepreneurs, with more than 1,000 views on Facebook Live, synchronizing efforts to elevate the Philippine cacao value chain. The event was made possible under the Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (DOST-PCAARRD) funded project titled “Productivity, Technical Efficiency, and Competitiveness of the Cacao Value Chain in the Philippines” led by Dr. Edilyn V. Lansangan, which aimed to transition the industry from traditional farming to a technology-driven, market-competitive sector. During the opening program, University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella, represented by Vice President for Research and Extension Dr. Emmanuel M. Vera Cruz, emphasized the importance of the gathering, noting that the presence of stakeholders reflects a collective drive to position cacao as one of the primary engines for rural development. “Today's conference brings together a diverse and dynamic community of stakeholders, from farmers and researchers to entrepreneurs, policymakers, and development partners. Your presence reflects a shared commitment to strengthening the Cacao Value Chain and unlocking the vast potential of Cacao as a driver of sustainable agriculture, livelihood generation, and rural development.” A high-level technical session featured industry leaders and researchers who addressed the multifaceted challenges of the sector. Philippine Cacao Industry Council (PCIC) President Consul Armi Lopez-Garcia and Dr. Divina M. Amalin of De La Salle University headlined a panel that covered national industry status, and the potential of cacao in the market. In addition, experts from CLSU, University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB), University of the Philippines Mindanao, Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI), and Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (PHilMech) discussed advanced pest management and the integration of modern agricultural techniques. Beyond production, the conference bridged the gap between the laboratory and the marketplace. Ms. Eva Ritchelle D. Padua, owner of The Dulce Chocolate House, provided an entrepreneurial perspective through presenting a developed product from cacao. The event also featured a technology demonstration held at PHilMech. The event is spearheaded by CLSU together with PCIC/Philippine Cacao Industry Association, Inc.

COS Launches the FIRST Program to Elevate Research and Teaching

The College of Science (COS), led by its College Dean, Dr. Angeles M. De Leon, officially launched the Faculty Immersion in Research, Scholarship, and Teaching (FIRST) Program today, March 12, at the CLSU International Studio.

Rather than a one-time workshop, it is an institutionalized, annual cycle of training and mentorship. “The success of the FIRST Program will depend not only on its design but on the active participation, collaboration, and commitment of our faculty members. This is an invitation for all of us to continue learning, mentoring, and growing together as a community of scholars,” De Leon said in her message. This program reflects the unwavering commitment of the University to strengthen not only its faculty but also the future of its students and its broader institutional impact. #SievingForExcellence
