A learning center for food research, innovation, and training is operational now in the heart of the Mindanao State University campus in Sanga-sanga, Tawi-Tawi. The P53-million facility—which includes food processing equipment, laboratory, and production area—was a project proposed by Prof, Jurma Tikmasan (inset), former dean of the university’s College of Fisheries and Technology.

The construction of the facility was completed in July 2022. Several food products have been perfected in this center, including seaweed and cassava chips, whose raw materials are abundant locally.
