Dr. Sales – Member: Solicitation and Accommodation

Philippine Association of Agriculturists (PAA)
The CSSP was invited to join as one of the six societies to comprise the PAA Board of Trustees. The PAA is the recognized, accredited professional organization for Agriculture responsible for licensing agriculturists since 2000. The Philippine Association of Agriculturists was established in 1917 and got revived in 1997 by the present Chairman of the Board Tomas L. Claudio. The number of licensed agriculturists has been increasing, thus the need to have a body that will support the licensing activities; the re-training and retooling of agriculturists for new agricultural technologies; representation in the congress/ senate; act as advisory to the secretaries; and act as a strong body to influence the direction of agriculture.


A Society representative to the PAA does not require him to be a licensed agriculturist or a regular member for now this can be changed as the BOT desires. PAA members who do not belong to any Societies will not have a representation to the BOT since BOT members are representatives of Societies. The “would be formed” BOT may decide to add another seat to the BOT to cater to these “barbarians”. Since BOT members are all Societies not individuals, the representatives can be changed as the Society desires. The Society can opt to elect or add to its set of officers a permanent representative to the PAA BOT.


Since there was a split decision in the BOD, a consensus was made to present the PAA to the general assembly. The BOD thinks that membership to the PAA would allow the involvement of the Society in the above-mentioned activities; can increase attendance to scientific meetings once the Society is affiliated; can conduct other activities for the students and researchers to uplift the science of agriculture; and can facilitate the licensing of Agriculture graduate before 1997. The negative views include: the constitution is not yet ratified; there is no established activities conducted as yet; this will be an added activity to the CSSP with credit given to the PAA; and views that the PAA will only use established Societies such as CSSP for its own gain.

 

Challenges for the Next BOD


1. Update the CSSP directory, life members, etc
2. Sustain the website initiative


- Hiring of a website manager
- CSSP materials for uploading, including past best paper and poster winners
- Actively answer queries sent through the contact us feature


3. Maintenance of the PJCS standard and regular circulation


- Need for a circulation manager
- Encourage publication of high quality scientific papers
- Tap the DA-BAR for possible PJCS funding support
- Conduct activities other than the conference


As my term ends, I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to the guests, resource speakers, donors, and most of all the participants for making the FCSSP conference a success; to the BOD (who became my confidant) for the trust and support, making my term challenging, exciting and memorable; and to all for giving me the chance to serve
the Society. It made me use my “charm” several times, tap new contacts and reconnect and use my old contacts and friends, and I have become a better person (I think) and a professional - a really fruitful and “humbling” experience. THANKS MUCH!!!
