LIGHT RAIN MARKS FIRST DAY OF 2017

The New Year starts with a hopeful note as light rains showered the vast plains of Central Luzon on the very first day of 2017.
This is supposed to be the Dry Planting Season when rains would be scarce and the unirrigated areas shift to alternative crops.
On the way down from Baguio City where I spent New Year with the family, I saw the wide and flat lands of Central Luzon which would be very productive given favourable climate.
I pray that the climate would stay this way to give us in the Dept. Of Agriculture enough time to establish the solar powered irrigation systems in the rain-fed areas of the country.
