Manipis 2024 Agriculturalwastemgt Project Profile
Introduction
Agricultural waste shall refer to waste generated from planting or harvesting of crops,
trimming, or pruning of plants, and waste or run-off materials from farms and fields.
Agricultural waste and its impact on the environment. Plastic waste (e.g., polybags and alike)
generated from farming practices can pollute the soil and waterways and harm wildlife that
ingests or become entangled in it.
Another primary way in which agricultural waste harms the environment is through its impact
on water quality (run-offs of pesticides and herbicides alike). Mitigates to utilize
environmentally-sound methods that maximize the utilization of valuable resources and
encourage resource conservation and recovery; Set guidelines and targets for solid waste
avoidance and volume reduction through source reduction and waste minimization measures,
including composting, recycling, re-use, recovery, green charcoal process, and others, before
collection, treatment, and disposal in appropriate and environmentally sound solid waste
management facilities (MRF) in accordance with ecologically sustainable development
principles; Ensure the proper segregation, collection, transport, storage, treatment, and
disposal of solid waste through the formulation and adoption of the best environmental
practice in ecological waste management excluding incineration; Strengthen the integration of
ecological solid waste management and resource conservation and recovery topics into the
academic curricula of formal and non-formal education in order to promote environmental
awareness and action among the citizenry.

Current Problem / Scenario
Agricultural waste affects our community due to not properly disposing of our agricultural
waste, agricultural waste such as plastics and packaging (farming enhancement materials) can
also harm the environment if not disposed of correctly. It ends up in a landfill, it may take
hundreds of years to decompose and leach chemicals into surrounding soil and water, which is
why plastics recycling is important.
Legal Basis
Develop a model provincial, city, and municipal solid waste management plan that will establish
prototypes of the content and format which provinces, cities and municipalities may use in
meeting the requirements of the National Solid Waste Management Framework.
Pursuant to the relevant provisions of R.A. No. 7160, otherwise known as the Local Government
Code, the LGUs shall be primarily responsible for the implementation and enforcement of the
provisions of this Act within their respective jurisdictions.
Develop a provincial solid waste management plan from the submitted solid waste
management plans of the respective city and municipal solid waste management boards herein
created. It shall review and integrate the submitted plans of all its component cities and
municipalities and ensure that the various plans complement each other and have the requisite
components. The Provincial Solid Waste Management Plan shall be submitted to the
Commission for approval.
The Provincial Plan shall reflect the general program of action and initiatives of the provincial
government in implementing a solid waste management program that would support the
various initiatives of its component cities and municipalities.
The province, city or municipality, through its local solid waste management boards, shall
prepare its respective 10-year solid waste management plans consistent with the national solid
waste management framework: Provided, That the waste management plan shall be for the re-
use, recycling and composting of wastes generated in their respective jurisdictions: Provided,
further, That the solid waste management plan of the LGU shall ensure the efficient
management of solid waste generated within its jurisdiction. The plan shall place primary
emphasis on implementation of all feasible re-use, recycling, and composting programs while
identifying the amount of landfill and transformation capacity that will be needed for solid
waste which cannot be re-used, recycled, or composted. The plan shall contain all the
components provided in Sec. 17 of this Act and a timetable for the implementation of the solid
waste management program in accordance with the National Framework and pursuant to the
provisions of this Act: Provided, finally, that it shall be reviewed and updated every year by.
On behalf of the Provincial Government of Zamboanga del Sur, the Provincial Environment and
Natural Resources Office – Provincial Local Government Unit (PENRO-PLGU, ZDS) will represent
and administer the coordination of the twenty-six (26) Municipalities of Zamboanga del Sur
regarding the enforcement of environmental laws on agricultural waste management and
inventory of GHG contributor; and to ensure that the management and conservation of
agricultural resources of the province shall be followed in accordance with the national and
local constitution.
In coordination with DENR RIX continuing data-based gathering for maps and references. This
will also undergo series of benchmarking for replication and effective local enforcement and
management of project implementation with the use of procured equipment support and
necessity of manpower to assist the output of the said project.
The Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office – Provincial Local Government Unit
(PENRO-PLGU, ZDS) shall conduct an Information and Education Campaign (IEC) in the 27
C/MLGUs of the province emphasizing the importance of environmental protection,
conservation and rehabilitation specifically on the usage and proper disposal practices on
agricultural planting and farming materials that affects GHG and Soil Fertility.
Geographic Information System (GIS) data shall be collected to assess, locate, and identify the
current agricultural waste disposal practices, GHG contributor on air emissions of the twenty-
six (26) municipalities. Data inventory and assessment shall be done thru Geotagging pictures,
Geotracking the area being assessed, and stakeholders (e.g., government and non-government
organizations, affected persons, and alike) consultation.
The communication plan shall consist of Information and Education Campaign (IEC) advocacy
strategy for selected national and local stakeholders. Through a communication plan, the local
government can drive enhancing the enforcement and management efforts of key
stakeholders, strengthen conservation and management capacities, formulate appropriate
legislative and policy frameworks, and advocate strong linkages among different groups and
sectors. This will also undergo series of benchmarking for replication and effective local
enforcement and management of project implementation.
Organize Summit/Symposium/Training
