The conduct of the Sandugo Agri-Fair this year is something unique than the usual celebration because this will be highlighted with Experiential Learning which are useful to the students or in the young generation wherein such activities are somehow neglected in modern time.

Provincial Agriculturist Liza M. Quirog during the Capitol Reports last Friday said that the agri-fair which is scheduled on July 17-19, 2023 at the Old Tagbilaran City Airport will be memorable and have more fun because everyone has a chance to learn the old best practices among agri-fishery sectors that it seems gradually phased out in the new generation such: rice pounding, traditional stone corn grinding, coconut grating, Karomata Riding, Bangus Deboning, Net Mending, and Puso Making.

The experiential learning will be done on the second day at 8:30 am. – 5:00 p.m. at the venue of the fair.
