The Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) unveiled its 24/7 dairy products vending machine last Friday, September 17.
The automated machine will feature products made from carabao’s milk and will be officially open for public use in October.
In its Facebook post last Friday, the PCC said it aims to promote the produce of local farmers and make them conveniently and easily accessible to the people.
“Ito ay kapaki-pakinabang lalo na sa mga kababayan na nais tumangkilik sa produkto ng mga magsasaka nguni’t laging napag-aabutan ng oras ng pagsasara o sa mga umiiwas na makihalubilo sa maraming tao dulot ng pandemiya,” the agency’s statement read.
The project was made possible through the PCC’s partnership with the Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic, and Natural Resources Research and Development; OneStorePh; and Central Luzon State University-Central Luzon Agriculture and Resources Research and Development Consortium. /ra
