It is the earnest effort of the National Plant Protection Centre (NPPC) to bring forth the annual report to reflect the achievements and challenges faced during the past year. Through this annual report, it is our wish to present herein the sincere efforts put in by all our researchers, support staff and collaborating agencies, individuals and that of farmers. As is undertaken by various agencies and institutions, the documentation of annual activities in such a format is carried out to serve as: a) a referral source for future, and; b) to present possibilities of collaboration and cooperation with agencies and institutions, from within the Ministry of Agriculture and Forests and outside.
