Dr. Reynaldo Ebora (left), executive director of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCAARRD) of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) visits the Hydroponics Park at the Central Luzon State University in Munoz, Nueva Ecija. With him is Dr. Chito F. Sace (right) who is conducting research on hydroponics, a technology that does not use soil as medium to grow plants like vegetables but uses a mixture of nutrients dissolved in water under controlled conditions. Dr. Sace recently gave a lecture on hydroponics during the celebration of the DOST Region III’s Regional Science and Technology Week held at the CLSU campus. DOST-PCCAARD is funding the research study of Dr. Sace (Photo by CLSU Hydroponics Aquaponics/Text by Rodolfo P. de Guzman/S&T Media Service)
