Hi Arthur,Welcome to the bamboo plantation group!
Where in the Philippines do you live and where do you plan to establish your
bamboo plantation?
I am also from the Philippines and I work at PCARRD under its Forestry and
Environment Research Division. Bamboo and Rattan is one of the major commodities
of our division and we monitor and evaluate projects related to these
commodities. We have local publications (like the Philippines Recommends for
Bamboo; Profitablity analysis for ornamental bamboo (specifically for Pole
bamboo) and for pole and shoot production (specifically for kawayan tinik ) that
are for sale at a reasonable price at PCARRD. The content of these publications
are mostly derived from the completed Rsearch and Development projects conducted
locally on bamboo and rattan. Similarly, we have an ongoing E-learning course on
bamboo (entitled Growing bamboo for (Profit and Healthy Environment) which was
developed by PCARRD and administered by the Agricultural Training Institute of
the Department of Agriculture (ATI-DA). This is available online at the
e-learning site of ATI (www.e-extension.gov,ph/elearning).
I hope you'll be able to see/avail these publications. I'm sure this will help
you get started in your plan to go into bamboo plantation.....
Good luck and best wishes,
Nimfa
