BAKAHAN – Cattle Center and Livestock Auction Market

Livestock raising in the Philippines plays a big role in the life of the Filipino people especially in the development and growth of the agricultural and rural economies. For small holder farmers, livestock serves as their source of cash to buy the inputs they needed in their daily life and support their families.
This project aims to be the Central Livestock Market in Batangas that will provide a development facility that will comply to the needs of the users in order to provide employment and generate more income to our farmers. Also, the complex should show its ability to create a resilient environment in order to be a part of increasing the demand needed within the industry itself and achieve a green and sustainable development.
