Local cigarette manufacturer Mighty Corp. said it will donate tobacco dust, a fish pond conditioner that protects local ponds from predators, to help millions of Filipino fish pond owners and operators as well as tobacco farmers nationwide. “We are going to help the National Tobacco Administration promote the use of tobacco dust by donating to our thousands of fish pond owners and operators all over the country,” Mighty Corp. executive vice president Oscar Barrientos said in a statement. Studies by a team from the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center in Tigbauan, Iloilo under Joebert Toledo had confirmed the tobacco dust efficacy.
