Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Pinol said the department has allotted P20 million for Dumangas town and another P10 million for Passi City as part of the Production Loan Easy Access program. The program allows farmers and fisherfolks to borrow from P5,000 to P25,000 without any collateral and a six percent annual interest payable in at least two years.

    Carillo, Carmencita (BusinessWorld Publishing Corporation, 2016-01-14)

One of the main products being fostered in the city, the capital of Davao del Norte, is the high-value soft-shell mud crab, found both in crab farms and in the Tagum’s protected mangroves.
