Earn cash weekly from alugbati
By Dell H. Garcia and Pit La. Cantilang
Alugbati is to Visayans what saluyot is to Ilocanos. The culture of alugbati provides many families in the Visayas with a means of earning a good living; Some families in Iloilo are able to send their children to school by planting alugbati.
Pavia, a town eight kilometers southwest of Iloilo City, is very famous for alugbati. Ilongos regard the residents of Pavia as connoisseurs and expert growers of alugbati.
