The Davao del Norte provincial government has initiated interventions to address the troubled abaca sector in Talaingod town, where thousands of indigenous people are affected by the suspension of abaca-buying operations.

More than 2,638 IP families from 70 sitios in Talaingod town are affected by the suspension of abaca-buying operations, according to local officials. Daratex abaca is a type of abaca fiber that is often of low quality and prone to processing problems and is considered to be fake as they do not meet the standards of genuine abaca fibers.
