SDG COCO PROJECT: RAISING THE BAR ON COCONUT FARMING
Franklin Baker Company of the Philippines, in collaboration with key partners, successfully concluded the SDG Coco Project, a four-year initiative aimed at improving the socio-economic and environmental sustainability of the Philippine coconut industry. The project empowered 526 farmers across Laguna, Quezon, and Camarines Norte through training in sustainable practices, farm upgrading, and capacity building. Highlights include the establishment of three demonstration farms, two of which are now Coconut Learning Sites, and the development of educational resources to benefit more farmers nationwide. While the project has officially ended, its legacy of innovation and collaboration continues to inspire the next generation of coconut farmers.
