                    [Summary] => A barangay in Quezon City will serve as a pilot area in showcasing the health and environmental benefits of citronella and vetiver plants which are believed to be quite effective, respectively, against dengue outbreaks and soil erosion.


This program, designed to improve barangay health care through environ-ment-friendly means, is an offshoot of an NGO-led advocacy aimed at propagating the citronella and vetiver plants coupled with educating the community residents on their proper use and cultivation.
