History
Summarize
Perspective
The program was hosted, produced, written and directed by Adolfo "Ka Gerry" Geronimo. It started as a radio program in April 1974 on DZFM, which aims to improve Filipino people's lives by sharing insights and innovations in agriculture, crops, fishery, livestock, and home industries.[1][2] He pioneered agricultural programming on television, and later became a vehicle for him to be appointed as one of the sectoral representatives for the peasants during the 10th Congress of the Philippines as well as his participation in the 1992 and 1998 Senatorial elections.
It was later evolved as a television program which premiered on October 15, 1980, on MBS Channel 4,[3] and also traveled through different television stations through the years. The program was also aired internationally on ABS-CBN Sports and Action provided by TFC from 2009 to 2020.[4]
The program, however, ended its run on Philippine television on July 10, 2016, after the program was suspended indefinitely on PTV Channel 4 by the Presidential Communications Operations Office under the leadership of then-PCOO Secretary Martin Andanar; which he focused PTV to become a News and Public Affairs channel.[5] Despite this development, viewers can still catch up the program through its YouTube channel for free.[6]
