Abstract

This research study focuses on enhancing agricultural sustainability in Geographically Isolated and Disadvantaged Areas (GIDA), specifically in Digkilaan, Iligan City. Through a comprehensive investigation, the study assesses the awareness and perceptions of residents regarding organic fertilizer usage. The research incorporates Information-Communication-Education (ICE) interventions, including seminars and workshops, to promote the adoption of organic farming practices. Findings reveal positive attitudes towards organic fertilizer, with a notable knowledge gap addressed through the ICE campaign. The study recommends expanding educational initiatives, strengthening government support, and encouraging community engagement to foster the sustainable integration of organic farming practices in Digkilaan.
