THE next administration must ramp up investment in irrigation, starting with the retrofitting of dams to boost their capacity to capture more rainwater, Agriculture Secretary William D. Dar said.

“There are many dams that were put up by the National Irrigation Administration . The problem at present is not the dams, but the limited capacity. We have too much rainfall during the rainy season. What will happen? It always overlows because we don’t have enough capacity . The water is wasted,” he said during a virtual briefing.

In April, President Rodrigo R. Duterte signed an executive order transferring the NIA back to the Department of Agriculture . Apart from irrigation development, Mr. Dar said that he has listed other policy recommendations for President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. who will be his successor as agriculture secretary.
