Building more cold storage facilities in the Philippines is an endeavor that could have been done a long time ago.

By extending the shelf life of fresh produce and agricultural products, cold storage solutions contribute to the reduction of food waste while helping farmers and entrepreneurs avoid post-harvest losses, ultimately improving their profitability.

The proposed FMDLIB system, utilizing decommissioned railway lines, offers a promising solution for transporting agricultural commodities more efficiently. Integrating this system with food hubs and cold storage facilities near port areas would create a streamlined and cost-effective supply chain. This would benefit not only farmers by reducing transportation costs and increasing market access, but also consumers by ensuring a more consistent supply of fresh produce.

The creation of a technical working group to craft policies on the development and operation of deep-water ports is a crucial step in this direction. These ports will not only enhance the efficiency of cargo handling and distribution but also reduce the cost of transporting farm inputs like fertilizers, leading to lower production costs for farmers. This will hugely benefit farmers by reducing their production costs and potentially increasing their output.
