Metro Pacific Fresh Farms bolsters Bulacan’s bid as a modern agri-hub

Metro Pacific Fresh Farms (MPFF) has bolstered the bid to make the province of Bulacan a modern agriculture hub with its Greenhouse Facility in San Rafael, Bulacan.

During a visit by Governor Daniel R. Fernando at the MPFF Greenhouse Facility, the provincial chief hailed the project as a critical milestone for the province's agricultural future.

He said that the Greenhouse Facility operates through a strategic joint venture between Metro Pacific Agro Ventures (MPAV) and the LR Group of Israel, this facility currently stands as the country’s largest vegetable greenhouse.

The facility has an advanced controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) technology, enabling the consistent, year-round production of premium-quality vegetables while demonstrating exceptional resource efficiency—specifically, requiring minimal water and soil inputs.

“MPFF has announced ambitious plans to double the facility's size by 2026. This aggressive expansion plan will solidify Bulacan’s position as a regional leader in agricultural innovation and scale, setting a new national benchmark for modern farming practices,” Fernando said.

The governor underscored the facility’s immense potential to bolster both food security and local economic opportunities for Bulacan’s farming communities.

His remarks emphasized the powerful synergy between the public and private sectors in driving provincial development.

“Ang proyektong ito ay isang malinaw na patunay na sa sama-samang pagkilos ng publiko at pribadong sektor, mapapabilis ang pagpapaunlad natin nang tuluy-tuloy ang agrikultura sa lalawigan at makakalikha rin ng mas matatag na kinabukasan para sa mga magsasaka ng Bulacan,” he said.
