MMSU Bamboo R&D Station

Pampanga State Agricultural University (PSAU) never fails to generously share their bamboo resources, especially new bamboo varieties. These bamboo propagules will be planted in our bambusetum. Bambusetum plays an important role in conserving the genetic diversity of bamboo species. It serves as a valuable resource for research, breeding, and sustainable production. By preserving different bamboo species, we ensure the availability of high-quality planting materials for plantation establishment and for environmental sustainability.

Team MMSU Bamboo recently visited the Bamboo Training Center, Bamboo Plantation, and Bamboo Processing Center at Tarlac Agricultural University in Tarlac. We were impressed by their extensive bamboo plantation and their engineered bamboo products, especially the bamboo guitar.

To further enhance our MMSU bamboo products, the team visited CS First Green in Bayambang, Pangasinan to learn and experience the company's best practices, particularly in processing operations using state-of-the-art machinery and equipment in the production of bamboo panels. We were warmly welcomed by the marketing staff of CS First Green. Thank you for this opportunity, CS First Green!

The MMSU Bamboo Team recently visited the bamboo project of the City Government of Alaminos. Among the facilities visited were the E-Bamboo Processing Center, the bamboo nursery, and the bamboo plantation located in Sual, Pangasinan. The partnership between MMSU and the City Government of Alaminos continues to strengthen, driven by their shared commitment to advancing the bamboo industry in Region I.

Showcasing its capabilities in addressing environmental problems, the Hiraya Team of the Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) won in the Agro-Eco Foresight competition organized by the Agro Eco Universum Club based in Hong Kong.

Composed of junior and senior college students of the MMSU College of Agriculture, Food, and Sustainable Development (CAFSD), the team tied with its competitor from the Vietnam National University of Science (VNUS) during the final match held online on April 22.

In the final game, the MMSU and VNUS teams provided long- and short-term solutions for the ‘pink-jelly’ color in animal drinking ponds. Their entries were evaluated by the Board of Juries composed of experts in the field of agriculture, environment and natural resources.

According to Dr. Charlie Batin, one of the coaches, the competition became intense, and both teams earned an equal number of points from the jury. The lone winner could not be decided, thus, the two were declared as co-champions.
