Makopa vs tambis the Difference


BY PATRICIA BIANCA S. TACULAO

During the weekend, Agriculture Online has received tons of feedback, both positive and negative, about the difference between makopa and tambis. It all started when we posted a photo that many were quick to call out as tambis instead of makopa.

To correct our mistake, we chose a file photo from the website that came from farmers who grow makopa under a project via the Mama Sita Foundation (MSF) whose main goal is the support and promotion of Philippine heritage and agricultural sustainability.

But despite the new photo we posted that was sourced from farmers themselves, many have still pointed out that it’s not makopa. Instead, it’s still tambis, which is closely related to the makopa. They also look alike, which added to the confusion.
