The Province of Surigao del Sur was chosen as one of the pilot areas in Caraga region for the implementation of the Special Area for Agricultural Development (SAAD) Program for the calendar year 2019.Four (4) municipalities were identified, these are Bayabas and Carmen for the first district and Lingig and Bislig City for the second district benefitted by 20 groups with 578 individual members.
For the year 2019, a total of Php 16.67 million worth of projects was allocated to the Surigao del Sur province. Poverty reduction and sustainable development rely mostly on empowering people. One of the avenues to empower them is through interventions for sustainable livelihoods. Majority of the interventions were poultry and livestock. The Provincial Program Management Support Offices (PPMSOs) and beneficiaries were involved in the identification, planning, and implementation of the projects.
Native chicken production has been introduced for the purpose to provide each group with an additional income at the same time a good source for protein for each household. Chicken raising is a feasible livelihood for them because of the small investment and short time to income. On the other hand, goat rearing has distinct economic and managerial advantages over other livestock because of its less initial investment, low input requirement, higher prolificacy, early sexual maturity, and ease in marketing.
Other beneficiaries were engaged in corn production and root crops such as kamote and ube production.
