| local.seafdecaqd.extract | A house leader on Saturday said more young people from agricultural areas were turning away from farming. Citing recent studies conducted by the STI Education Services Group Inc., deputy speaker and AAMBIS-OWA Party-list Rep. Sharon Garin said the average age of farmers in the Philippines was 57 years old. Senior and middle-aged farmers find it harder to pass on the work to young people. This, as Garin pushed for the passage of her House Bill 6277 or the Young Farmers Program Act that seeks to provide an institutionalized scholarship program for agriculture and fisheries courses in State Universities and Colleges as well as Private Education Institutes. | en |
