Commercialization of technologies for the agri-aqua sector
Excerpt
For the Agriculture, Aquatic, and Natural Resources (AANR) sector, the technology transfer strategies of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development of the Department of Science and Technology (PCAARRD-DOST) are Deployment, Extension, and Commercialization. According PCAARRD, Deployment and Extension are resorted to when effective technology utilization and adoption are influenced by non-market considerations. Deployment is the pathway used during extraordinary circumstances for food and production input technologies, particularly in times of disaster and natural calamities. This strategy is also adopted for technologies that are not easily affordable or accessible to farmers and fisherfolk such as machineries, post-harvest and processing equipment, hatcheries, and nurseries.
