The narrative of Leonie Agri Corporation (LAC) Farms is one that sparks hope.
The initial 42-hectare land in Nueva Ecija where the farm stands today was formerly believed by the locals to be cursed as it was arid and barren for the longest time.It has evolved from “cursed” land into a bountiful farm that later expanded and branched out into the provinces of Aurora (91.8 ha), Bataan (30 ha), and Bulacan (20 ha).
It was through “innovative farming technologies, the application of sound ecological management, a community development thrust, and strong ethical values” that made this transformation possible, said Antonio C. Causing, 61, President and CEO of Leonie Agri Corporation.
LAC Farms, which currently spans a total of 243.8 hectares, established itself as the Philippines’ largest organic-certified farm and manufacturer of natural and organic raw materials.
From a site that was once covered in cogon and talahib grasses to a land where many crops abound, LAC Farms is now committed to practicing “organic agriculture and environment-friendly methods to rehabilitate, improve, maintain, and sustain its operations.”
