As part of its continuous effort to strengthen collaboration with government agencies, the DA-BAFS, through the Standards Development Division (SDD), successfully conducted a Sectoral Meeting on Philippine National Standards (PNS) for Crops on March 19, 2026, at the DA-BAFS Building, BPI Compound, Visayas Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City.
The activity brought together representatives from various partner government offices to present the Bureau’s Programs, Activities, and Projects (PAPs) related to Standards Development for CY 2026–2028. This initiative focused on the development of Philippine National Standards for agricultural crops (food and non-food) commodities. Further, the activity facilitated the validation of the priority areas for standards development, ensuring that these initiatives remain responsive, relevant, and aligned with the needs of the agriculture and fisheries sectors.
Through active participation and valuable inputs from the participants, the Bureau aims to enhance the quality, safety, and competitiveness of Philippine agricultural products in both local and global markets.
DA-BAFS expresses its sincere appreciation to all participants for their support and contribution to the advancement of standards development in the country.
