The project aims to organize farmers into clusters, assist them with value-adding activities and quality requirements, and increase their knowledge to boost productivity and income. Specifically, it details a partnership in San Jose, Nueva Ecija where farmers formed a cooperative called Kalasag Farmers Producers Cooperative to supply onions to Jollibee. The partnership helped farmers access loans, materials and technical support to increase their onion production and sales to Jollibee.
