The Department of Agriculture in coordination
with the National Agri-Business Corporation (NABCOR) turns-over the Liquid
Quick Freeze Machine worth P4.6 million to the Tandag Boholano Fishermen’s
Association (TANBOFISA) held recently at the TANBOFISA Ice Plant in Surigao del
Sur. The Liquid Quick Freezer is a commitment of DA Secretary Proceso Alcala to
the TANBOFISA when he visited the Province of Surigao del Sur on June 2011. The
machine has a capacity to produce three tons of ice per day. The making of ice
takes two hours and is done by batches with 16 blocks of ice weighing 8 kilos
each produced per batch. (DA-13/PIA-Caraga)
