Availability of Reasonably-Priced Fertilizers to Fishpond Owners
Republic Act No. 2675, enacted on June 18, 1960, amends a previous law to ensure that fertilizers are made available to fishpond owners and operators at reasonable prices. The act emphasizes the national policy of promoting agricultural production and enhancing farm productivity by providing adequate fertilizer access. It broadens the definition of "farmers" to include those engaged in fishpond operations. The law took effect upon its approval and was published in the Official Gazette later that year.
