MADRE DE AGUA The Wonder Plants by Madre

 

How it came to us.

As early as 2010 when we got to know Madre de Agua plants. Initially we are not aware how beneficial this plant can be for our farmer and the farm animals. This plant can help local farmers to ease up their commercial feed expenses by growing this plant in their backyard or field. My dad is one of the few who propagate this plant for our farm feed requirements. The plantation is located in our province in La Union. It’s in the low land below the foot of the Summer Capital of the Philippines(Baguio City)). Based on his experience, farming became more profitable because of using Madre de Agua by lowering your commercial feed expenses to almost 70%. Madre de Agua is a game changer using this as natural plant feed to supplement the feed's farm feed requirements. Madre de Agua can be propagated through cuttings. My dad told me that our 1st Madre de Agua cutting came from a friend who worked in one of the feeds manufacturers during that time. They are the ones supplying our pig and chicken feed requirements. The price of the cuttings sell around Php150/pc. approximately (USD 3/pc).
