LOS BAÑOS, Philippines—How can agricultural research move beyond experiments, reports, and technical publications to reach the people who need it most?

This question took center stage during the recently concluded Training Course on Communicating Science and Research Results, held on 11–13 August 2026 at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) headquarters in Los Baños, Laguna.

Implemented under the Project UPSKILL, the training course brought together 26 agricultural communicators from the Department of Agriculture (DA) Regional Field Offices and attached agencies for three days of hands-on learning in strategic messaging, storytelling, digital content production, and communication planning.

📸 Take a look at some moments from the training and discover how DA communicators are being equipped to turn research into impact.

🌾 WHAT IF CROP RESIDUES COULD BECOME MORE THAN JUST WASTE?

Crop residues are often burned or discarded—but what if they could instead become valuable resources for farmers, businesses, and communities?

Through the Training Course on Crop Residue Management for a Green Circular Economy, participants will explore how agricultural mechanization and sustainable residue management can reduce environmental impacts while unlocking opportunities for value-added products such as compost, mushroom substrates, biochar, livestock feed, and biomass energy.

This three-day, hands-on training brings together practical skills in machinery operation, repair and maintenance, and innovative residue utilization—helping participants turn a sustainability challenge into an opportunity for a greener and more circular agricultural system.

♻️ From residue to resource. From waste to value.
