The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) distributed P8 million worth of equipment to about 240 individuals and seven fisherfolk associations in the coastal town of Dilasag. The package included gill nets, fiberglass-reinforced plastic boats, marine engines, spear guns, shallow payao, bottom-set longlines, and tuna handlines. Under related programs, BFAR also delivered five high-density polyethylene or HDPE circular cages stocked with milkfish fingerlings, along with feed for the first cropping cycle.
