CAGAYAN DE ORO, February 22, 2022 – The FPA Provincial Officer for Misamis Oriental, Romnick Boctot, verified 6,000 MT of urea (46-0-0) imports which arrived at Cagayan de Oro Port today. The Quality Grains and Feeds Corp., a FPA-registered fertilizer handler, imported it from Vietnam.

Led by Supervising Agriculturist Sonia Calleja, The RFU X monitored the said activity to avoid mishandling and compromise the fertilizer quality. Upon inspection, the imports passed the standard weight measurement. Mr. Boctot also collected samples for confirmatory analysis to be done by Laboratory Services Division.

The inspection was part of the relentless efforts of FPA to ensure the public of adequate supply of quality fertilizer.
