A study by the Biotechnology Coalition of  the Philippines (BCP) show that while more corn farmers are adopting Bt corn since its commercial release in 2002, majority still find planting materials very expensive.

Agriculture Secretary Domingo F. Panganiban has been invited to keynote the congress, which has for its theme "Masaganang Maisan, Maunlad na Bayan."


The activity aims to enrich the participants’ knowledge in production, postharvest financing, and enterprise; broaden their insights into policies affecting the corn industry; and advocate reforms and measures toward a more competitive corn industry.

Alicia Ilaga, director of the Department of Agriculture’s biotech program said the Bureau of Plant Industry already approved for commercial production the new GM corn variety developed by Monsanto.

According to the BPI, the stacked-train corn is a superior variety, since it is both resistant to insects while tolerant with herbicides.


Through genetic engineering, the company introduced the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) gene that enables the corn plant to resist the attacks of Asiatic corn borer, a dreaded insect pest that can cause as much as 80-percent yield reduction.
