SM Foundation is intensifying its Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan (KSK) program, an initiative aimed at improving farmers’ productivity and linking them to market opportunities.
As of 2024, the foundation has rolled out more than 400 training sessions across the Philippines, providing modern agricultural skills to over 32,000 farmers.
The foundation continues to widen the program’s reach, recently starting a new batch of training for 100 farmers from Cagayan de Oro, which commenced on August 8. The program aims to boost farmers’ knowledge on modern and market-oriented farming to help them improve their productivity and income.
In addition to launching new sessions, SM Foundation marked the completion of training in several areas. On August 6, 100 farmers from San Juan, Batangas, graduated from the program. This was followed by the August 13 graduation of another 100 farmers from Sariaya and San Andres, Quezon.
SM Foundation plans to launch the KSK program to more regions this year, anchored on their mission of supporting food security and creating opportunities.
Started in 1927, the Philippines Graphic is the longest-running printed magazine of national circulation that provides relevant news and features and promotes Philippine literature.
