The Agricultural Competitiveness Enhancement Fund (ACEF) is an ongoing loan and grant program for agriculture and fisheries. The main goal of the program is to increase the productivity and cut costs of agricultural and fisheries producers through the provision of loans to income generating and competitiveness-enhancing projects, particularly the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

Students who plan to take courses on agriculture, fisheries, forestry or veterinary medicine can now apply for a scholarship program to the Department of Agriculture. Under the ACEF, high school students or graduates can now submit their application forms through the Regional Scholarship coordinators, State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) or Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).

For interested applicants:

Please submit your application to the DA ACEF scholarship coordinator of the university or to the ACEF coordinator of the DA-Region III on or before July 19, 2019
