LA TRINIDAD, Benguet – The municipal government here, in partnership with Japan Agriculture exchange Program (JAEC) is now holding a one-month activity in line with home composting to promote solid waste management.
Concerned citizens were encouraged to attend seminars related to the venture for them to be able to get a certificate of attendance needed to get business permits.
The project teaches “two-drum composting technology,” adapted from Japan that had already used it in the country the past years.
Fely Ticbaen, the municipality agriculturist said the use of such invention is more advantageous compared to other technology since people could use it not only to support waste management but for home gardening as well.
All biodegradables should stay home, she said, adding the municipal garbage trucks will not going to accept waste unless segregated.
She said residual garbage should be brought to “Alno-Undayan.” a prepared dumpsite that would open considering that the Buyagan dumpsite will be closed.
The activity started Jan. 3.
