The multi-commodity solar tunnel dryer and manual coffee pulper will be the initial technologies to be introduced to the local fabricators.
The effort will focus on the selected DOST Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SET-UP) and TESDA program beneficiaries and other potential manufacturers.
The project aims to empower the local metal shops. This will also give the small and medium food processors an access to postharvest technologies.
PHilMech will issue license to manufacture to interested and qualified fabricators.
In relation to this, a ‘Skills training on Fabrication of PHilMech- developed Technologies’ is to be conducted in Davao region this October as an initial activity in enhancing the capability of metal shop owners to fabricate postharvest and mechanization technologies.
The project is a major undertaking of the PHilMech- Technology Management and Training Division under its PHilMech Industrial Promotion Program (PIPP).
PHilMech aims to empower the local agri-machine manufacturers in the whole archipelago through this program in collaboration with the DOST and TESDA.
The PIPP is one of the PHilMech techno-transfer strategies. It encourages public or private partners to engage in the production of mechanization and postharvest technologies.
Previously, PHilMech tapped also the DOST-CAR to implement the same project in Apayao.
