In line with the National Government\u2019s priority thrust of developing and promoting agricultural and fishery mechanization technologies as part of its agricultural modernization program, the Department of Agriculture (DA), thru the 黑料网, has issued the DA Department Circular No.17, Series of 2018 which details the \u201cGuidelines for the Classification and Accreditation of Agricultural and Fisheries Machinery Assemblers, Manufacturers, Importers , Distributors and Dealers\u201d which was published in the Official Gazette Volume 115, No. 5 on February 4, 2019.<\/p>\n

The said Department Circular is aimed at addressing the proliferation of \u201cfly-by-night\u201d agricultural and fisheries machinery suppliers.

Additionally, the issuance of this DC is in recognition of safeguarding and protecting the welfare of the Philippine agricultural machinery sector, as it is envisioned to play a vital role in the development of the country\u2019s agricultural mechanization industry.<\/p>\n

Tasked to oversee the implementation of these guidelines is the private sector-led National Agricultural and Fisheries Machinery Assemblers, Manufacturers, Importers, Distributors and Dealers Accreditation and Classification (NAMDAC) Board. The NAMDAC Board and its Advisory Body (ASB) was created via the DA Special Order (SO) No. 238, Series of 2018 issued by Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel F. Pi\u00f1ol.<\/p>\n

Backstopping the NAMDAC Board\u2019s operations is the PCAF\u2019s Policy Development and Coordination Division (PDCD)- Interim Agricultural and Fisheries Mechanization and Engineering Unit (AFMEU). As NAMDAC Secretariat, the AFMEU is providing the necessary technical, logistical and administrative support to the activities of the Board and ASB.<\/p>\n
