Manila City Mayor Francisco “Isko” Moreno Domagoso on Wednesday said the city government is working with the Bureau of Plant Industry to explore the adoption of Singapore’s urban farming technologies as part of efforts to strengthen food sufficiency in the Philippine capital.
Domagoso, speaking during the 96th anniversary celebration of the Bureau of Plant Industry on 11 February, said the partnership aims to localize food production in a highly urbanized setting, drawing lessons from Singapore’s experience as a dense city-state that has invested heavily in technology-driven agriculture.
“I opted to choose Singapore because geographically, physically, maliit ang Singapore, pero highly urbanized, fully developed, and if they can produce their own, and we also can produce our own,” the mayor said.
Domagoso said technical visits conducted earlier this year were part of Manila’s assessment of how smart agriculture systems could be adapted locally, particularly for food production within limited urban space.
He cited engagements with Singaporean institutions involved in agriculture, technology and skills training as reference points for Manila’s planning.
