Edelfonso Reyes Jr, one of the beneficiaries from the town of Diplahan, thanked the DA for the assistance. “Mapasalamaton ko sa DA nga usa ako sa mga beneficiaries sa RFFA. Dako kaayo ni nga tabang namong mag uuma. Gawas sa libreng binhi ug abono gikan kay DA, naa pay cash pang palit ug medisina para sa basakan.” (I am very thankful to DA for being one of the beneficiaries of RFFA. This is a tremendous help to us farmers. Aside from receiving free seeds and fertilizers from DA, we also have cash to buy pesticides for our farms.)
Another beneficiary, Edgar Sarona from Titay town, echoed his appreciation, “Dako akong pasalamat sa programa sa gobyerno pinaagi sa DA, kay kun dili tungod niini, dili mugaan ang akong pag gasto sa mga angay galastohan para sa basakan, nakapalit kog pesticide ug herbicide.” ( I am grateful for the government's program through DA, because if not for this, my spending on necessary farm expenses would be more burdensome. Thanks to this assistance, I was able to purchase pesticides and herbicides).
