X. Rationale of the Project

RATIONALE 1: Home gardening can be greatly improved by enhancing the use of the
garden for improved household food security and nutrition. Many people in rural villages lack the
experience, knowledge and skills to make improvements. Sometimes they also lack appropriate
planting materials. Knowledge and skills can be transferred by identifying successful home garden
managers who are prepared to work with less-successful or less-knowledgeable households,
supported by agricultural extension staff. The need for planting materials can be met by setting up
nurseries in individual home gardens, which can be managed by the respective managers on a
commercial basis. Visible success is more persuasive than a thousand lectures.

RATIONALE 2: The activities that will be realigned will be in connection with the
Department of Agriculture’s “Plant Plant Plant” program and Urban Agriculture-related
activities that will localize food production, will ease pressure on transporting goods from
production areas to market centers food and also ensure social distancing. The program will
also showcase food production using various technologies through community gardening.

XI. Objectives

• In general, to help families produce their own food.

✓ Also, to increase awareness among residents in the community about

producing food for food security.

Isang Dipang Gulayan is a way of planting where variety of seedlings are put together in
a small area. This aims to maximize small areas and save spaces while planting vegetable crops.
This project aims to encourage every household in the vicinity to have a vegetable garden at
home which will serve as sources of foods and income in this time of pandemic. Furthermore, this
also aims to stablish a group of young farmers who will help in the total establishment of these
project through conducting seminars and trainings about Urban Agriculture, Home Gardening,
Organic farming, and container gardening.

Likewise, this project will raise awareness about food security and health commitment.
This will offer a community-wide collaboration among various stakeholders and agricultural
sectors which will serve as a foundation for high level of understanding among households in
utilizing their backyard into “Isang Dipang Gulayan”.

As a result, you may be confident that it will help our Barangay. Thus, I am humbly asking
for your permission to carry out this project in our tranquil neighborhood of Quilo-Quilo South.
