I’m a social worker, we are operating a cooperative here in citramina palawan. Part of our social responsibility is to encourage some fishermen to plant agar-agar in a little island in sitio Nasuduan comprising 70 households.

Can you provide us some procedures and on how to link with appropriate government agencies or to some other institutions that could help us in this quest, in terms of new technologies and markets in local or foriegn?

Hoping for your assistance.

I’m more interested in Guso. A local Cebu caraggeenan eaten raw (half cooked) with vinegar, tomato and ginger.
I want to know:
1. If Guso has no bad effect to human body.
2. How many days will it take for Guso+vinegar+ginger+slice tomato will last without spoiling. Does it need to be chilled/refrigerated/fozen?
Is it possible to put it in tin can or tetra pack without bad effects to human?
Visayans and most people in Mindanaoans eat this. I want to put up a small canning plant.
