𝐁𝐞 𝐚 𝐏𝐆𝐍𝐒 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫!

The Provincial Government will soon be opening its doors to Nortehanon Agriculture students through a new scholarship opportunity - the 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐫 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 (𝐏𝐆𝐍𝐒–𝐀𝐒𝐏), another milestone for the province.

Under Sangguniang Panlalawigan Ordinance No. 08, Series of 2025 which created the PGNS ASP, the Provincial Government will be providing financial assistance for the study of indigent and deserving Nortehanon youth who wish to pursue a degree in agriculture, while also helping increase agricultural productivity in the province. In return, the scholars will need to practice agriculture within Northern Samar or engage in agri-enterpreneurship immediately after completing their program under an Agri-Enterpreneurship Commitment Agreement with the Provincial Government.

Based on the Ordinance and the approved Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) which lays down the eligibility criteria, scholarship benefits, retention and termination policies, qualified to apply for the scholarship program are indigent Agriculture students from Northern Samar, with good moral character, physically and mentally fit, not more than 35 years old upon application, with full load of subjects in every school year, and from a family of farmers, as certified under the Registry System of Basic Sector in Agriculture (RSBA).

The PGNS–ASP reflects Governor Harris Ongchuan and the Provincial Government’s strong commitment to invest in education and agriculture, empowering young Nortehanons to become future agri-leaders and driving forces of a food-secure and resilient Northern Samar.

Passed during the term of then Governor Edwin Ongchuan from a proposal of Provincial Agriculturist Dr. Jose Luis Acompanado, the program will soon be admitting its first batch of scholars under the guidance of incumbent Governor Harris who sits as chair of the PGNS ASP Board.

Unanimously approved by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan last year, the Ordinance was sponsored by Board Member Leonida Laodenio, Chair of the SP Committee on Agriculture, and co-sponsored by Board Members Don Abalon and Marites Gillamac.

Watch out for the next updates on the program!
