Farming doesn’t always require a degree in the same field. At most, it requires the passion for growing plants and caring for livestock, as well as the patience and determination to see it all through.
Gabby Retuya, 38, from Alcala, Pangasinan is one example of how farming can be for everyone who puts the right time and effort into it.
Born in Bautista, Pangasinan, Retuya finished a Bachelor’s degree in criminology at the University of Pangasinan. But he didn’t pursue his dream of becoming a full-time policeman. Instead, he became an agripreneur who grows and sells farm-ready seedlings from his farm, Gab Farm.
