Enriched noodles can be produced from scraps of milkfish and Gracilaria seaweed. This product has been developed by Aurora Afalla, a researcher of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU), a multi-campus school in La Union whose main campus is in Barangay Sapilang, Bacnotan. The technology won first prize in the Aquatic Technology Competition and Marketplace (ATCOM), an annual activity that awards outstanding technologies for their significant contribution to the country’s aquatic and marine industry and to the national economy as a whole.
