In an interview on Thursday, MENRO head Jessie Sacopla said they are aiming to surpass last year's planted seedlings as over 15,000 were already planted as of July this year. "We are planting more acacia and narra tree seedlings as these have higher survival rates as compared to the fruit-bearing trees," he said. In 2021, some 20,000 seedlings were planted in the mountainous area of this town through the initiative of the local government unit (LGU)
