VSU’s R and D responsibilities follow a multitiered system. Its national R and D responsibilities are in rootcrops, abaca, and coconut. Its regional responsibilities include rice, corn, sorghum and other cereals, vegetables, livestock, forage and pasture, soil and water resources, applied community sociology, and socio-economics. As a cooperating research agency, the University conducts research studies on ornamentals, medicinal plants, legumes, carabeef, poultry and livestock, agro-forestry and tree plantation, bamboo, rattan, and other non-timber forest products, marine fisheries and aquaculture, and non-conventional energy. With the implementation of the government’s Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Act (AFMA), VSU has been mandated to continue building up its research capability and further expand R and D pursuits to include environmental ecosystems, biotechnology, agro-industry, and information technologies.
