AGRO STRATUM1ConsequenceBackground InformationFigure 1:Performance of Philippine Agriculture ( 2013-2014 ) 001.png"> Beginning:hypertext transfer protocol: //www.bas.gov.ph/ ? ids=agriperformance Figure 2:Performance of Agriculture Agriculture posted a 0.67 per centum end product increase in the first three ( 3 ) months of 2014. The lag in the sector ‘s growing could be traced to the annihilating effects of typhoons that hit the state in 2013. The end product additions noted in the harvests, farm animal and domestic fowl subsectors were negated by the contraction in the piscaries subsector. Gross net incomes amounted to P386.7 billion at current monetary values. This represented a 10.75 per centum addition from last year’s gross grosss. Figure 3:Performance of Crops Subsector The harvests subsector grew by 1.53 per centum. It contributed 54.40 per centum to the entire agricultural production. Production of palay went up by 3.28 per centum while that of maize increased by 1.33 per centum during the mention period. Significant additions were noted in the production of sugar cane, Ananas comosus, manioc and onion. At current monetary values, the subsector grossed P225.8 billion or 17.58 per centum higher than last year’s record. Figure 4:Performance of Livestock Subsector Production in the farm animal subsector went up by 1.20 per centum. The subsector shared 15.44 per centum in the entire agricultural end product. The major beginning of growing was the pig industry which expanded by 1.25 per centum. All other farm animal constituents recorded additions in production. The subsector grossed P57.4 billion at current monetary values or 5.59 per centum more than last year’s degree. The domestic fowl subsector with its 14.46 per centum part to entire agribusiness grew by 1.33 per centum. Production additions in poulet at 2.50 per centum and duck at 0.10 per centum helped in prolonging the subsector’s growing. At current monetary values, the subsector’s gross value of production amounted to P45.7 billion. This indicated a 5.29 per centum betterment from last year’s record. Figure 5:Performance of Fisheries Subsector The piscaries subsector contracted by 3.25 per centum. The subsector accounted for 15.70 per centum of entire agricultural production. Reduced production was noted among all species except Euthynnus pelamis which registered a 4.62 per centum end product addition. The subsector grossed P57.8 billion, down by 2.64 per centum from last year’s record. Figure 6:Farmgate Monetary values On the norm, monetary values received by husbandmans increased by 10.01 per centum from last twelvemonth ‘s citations. In the harvests subsector, monetary values expanded by an norm of 15.81 per centum from the 2013 degrees. The farm animal and domestic fowl subsectors posted mean monetary value additions of 4.34 per centum and 3.90 per centum, severally. Monetary values in the piscaries subsector went up by an norm of 0.62 per centum this twelvemonth.

ARMM248528227571533,410565219Beginning: National Statics Office, 1991 Census of Agriculture and Fisheries and 2002 Census of Agriculture In 2002, the Philippines registered a sum of 4.8 million agricultural farms, covering 9.7 million hectares. The entire agricultural land country constituted 32.2 per centum of the country’s entire land country. Although the figure of farms was 4.6 per centum higher than the 4.6 million farms reported in 1991, the country’s entire farm country decreased by three per centum after a period of more than one decennary. The lessening in entire farm country could be attributed to the transition of farming areas to residential and commercial intents. As a consequence, the mean farm size declined from 2.2 hectares per farm in 1991 to two hectares per farm in 2002.
