UPL Philippines Doing Things Better



Food is our common ground, a universal experience.
-James Beard



Food is undeniably one of our basic needs and we owe it a lot to the farmers who are committed in ensuring us that we have enough food supply. But aside from the dedication of the farmers for their crops, there other things to consider to enable a good farming industry in the Philippines and one of them is to ensure good harvest through a reliable support system that can come from reputable agrochemical company such as UPL Philippines.

 
UPL Philippines

UPL is a leading global producer of crop protection products, intermediates, special chemicals and other industrial chemicals. Their product ranges from fumigants, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides and rodenticides. UPL is not only a leading and reputable company worldwide they are also recognized by their ethical practices that extend care and concern towards their employees, communities and environment. 




 
On VIDEO: Meanwhile during the press conference, I managed to ask one question that has been bugging me for a while- “Is the wax used on fruits safe to consume?” UPL is a global leader in crop protection and they are the top manufacturer of wax that protects and preserves the freshness of fruits. Mr. Tapas cordially explained the wax on fruits and why it is needed for the preservation of fruits.
 






Last 2014, UPL was awarded as one of the Top 50 Most Caring Companies for that year. On the scheduled media campaign this May, their primary focus is on safety of the farmers.

Last May 11 at the Holiday Inn Hotel in Makati, a media event was held and the main focused of this event was UPL Philippines’ commitment towards corporate responsibility which extends further to genuine concern of the environment and the communities. It only goes to show that UPL Philippines is one-step ahead of making our world a better place by having core values that care. UPL is indeed synonymous to ‘Doing Things Better’. #UPLDoingThingsBetter

While modern agricultural techniques boost yields for some, there remains a number of Filipino farmers who struggle to keep pace. These experienced hands find themselves falling behind in a market demanding higher production, clinging to familiar yet often inefficient methods passed down through generations. One farmer from Pampanga, Jayson Garcia, sought to disrupt this prevailing narrative in his family. He knew that he had to chart a new course forward for his farm and innovate to remain competitive within the rapidly evolving landscape of modern agriculture. “Noon, mahirap ang magtanim,” he recalled their life before joining SM Foundation’s Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan. “Para bang tsambahan, basta pag itinanim mo ‘yan, hintayin mo na lang mamunga. Mas mahirap pa lalo kapag nagkaroon ng kalamidad,” he added.  SM Foundation’s training program focused on high-value crop cultiv
