ANTIQUE – The local government of San Remigio in this province inaugurated its P2.5 million livestock facility on April 2, which will serve as a venue for trading farm animals.

“Farmers from our town before had to bring their livestock to Sibalom for them to be able to sell to the traders,” Mayor Margarito Mission Jr. said.

The new facility will allow farmers to save on transportation or hauling costs of around P1,000.

The livestock facility has a restroom, washing area and other amenities.

“It is also near the town marketplace and easily accessible for the farmers and traders,” the mayor added. (PNA)
