Pangilinan Soil Acidification Threatens 2.2M Hectares; Calls for Soil Testing

Behind the Scenes Senator Pangilinan Calls for Action on Soil Acidification and Sustainable Farming Practices

Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan recently sounded the alarm on the urgent need to address soil acidification and promote sustainable farming practices. As a key player in Philippine agriculture, Senator Pangilinan's call to action highlights the critical importance of protecting our soil health for future generations.

Soil acidification, a phenomenon characterized by a decrease in soil pH levels, is a pressing concern that affects not only crop yields but also overall ecosystem health. The senator emphasizes that this issue requires immediate attention and collective action from farmers, policymakers, and environmental advocates.

In his efforts to drive meaningful change, Senator Pangilinan has been championing sustainable farming practices that prioritize soil conservation and regeneration. By adopting regenerative agriculture techniques, such as cover cropping and crop rotation, farmers can not only mitigate the effects of soil acidification but also promote biodiversity, improve water retention, and increase crop resilience.

The senator's call to action is a timely reminder that our food production systems must be transformed to ensure long-term sustainability. By working together to address soil acidification and adopt sustainable farming practices, we can create a healthier, more resilient agricultural sector for the benefit of all Filipinos.

I hope this revised version meets your expectations!
