                    [Summary] => 
Perhaps it is a sign of urbanization. While young people in the big cities are more likely to associate the scarecrow with a DC Comics super villain, local farmers in the countryside see it as an ally to ward off pests and improve harvest yields. In a province such as Isabela that is working towards becoming the “Agro-Industrial Capital of the Philippines” in the coming decade, the scarecrow or bambanti has been adopted as a symbol for celebration, merrymaking and economic progress. Fittingly, one could not miss seeing a 12-foot scarecrow with its right arm beckoning at this year’s Bambanti Festival.

Perhaps it is a sign of urbanization. While young people in the big cities are more likely to associate the scarecrow with a DC Comics super villain, local farmers in the countryside see it as an ally to ward off pests and improve harvest yields. In a province such as Isabela that is working towards becoming the “Agro-Industrial Capital of the Philippines” in the coming decade, the scarecrow or bambanti has been adopted as a symbol for celebration, merrymaking and economic progress. Fittingly, one could not miss seeing a 12-foot scarecrow with its right arm beckoning at this year’s Bambanti Festival.
