to dpropagator: magkano po price per cacao seedling nyo? grafted po ba yan? magkano babayaran sa trucking from davao to sorsogon?
to mr. danilo ocmer:
P20 each po. pick up dito sa davao city. grafted uf 18.
ang cost ng trucking, depende po sa dami ng karga. kung 4,000 pcs kailangan elf ang gamitin pero kung 6,000 pcs. or more, forward. yung client namin sa sorsogon, 15,000 pcs ang karga 10 wheeler ang ginamit.
