Even though 50% of land in the Philippines is Agricultural and statistics of 1:2 of the populace are farmers, we continue to import agricultural products. Most of our farmers remain at the poverty level due to lack of support from our government, capitalism, land reform, lack of irrigation, farm to market roads, etc. Our Farm lands are abused with the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that contributes to poor harvest. I grew up in a village in the Cordilleras where farming is the main source of livelihood. After 50 years the place is still the same, except for a rough road connecting the Barrio to town and electric power. New farming technologies and research have now solutions for sustainable agriculture. We advocate for organic farming to reduce inorganic fertilizer and pesticide costs while increasing crop yields and help save our environment from pollution. We call it "the soil solutions."

Hello...
We used to be the trainers of farming, and yet through technology, we forgot the natural way of farming, we adopt inorganic farming cause we need a huge amount of supply, in line with this our land became acidic and our yield decreased that why we import t our neighboring country. Which uses natural way such as organic farming. we are now suffering from using this chemicals to produced our food. It's about time that we go back to basics, go back to nature and learn how nature created his yields. Of course some of us would probably think of the old ways of organic farming which is not in immediate result, it takes time, Heavy, to many works to be done.
Today some company has step up to make organic farming as easy as the synthetic fertilizer. It is been process through latest technology such as Nano technology that cuts out the time needs for the plants to utilized it. We can help our farmers gain and restore the smiles in their faces. I am Talking about WinCrop. If you want to know more you can send it to my email. I am gladly to help.

tisoyme

HI;;

agriculture in philippines are good its because of its climate where it can produce a good quality of corps which is exported outside the philippines as a raw material or just simply consumable but inconsistent sometimes especially bothered by bad weather(typhoons) lazines and corruptions sometimes..tnx.

31

Jayson
The source of delima are those bad politicians, their corruption tactics and policies. Second, when small farmers plant and cultivate the land, here comes the NPA who will take your products. But we are already late. with Global 7 billion populations with interest in technology advancement the world will be in huge hunger. You take care of your family, they take care of them, they will source you until you die. Thats the game now and forever.
now body understand them, they will establish strategic planning for agriculture but its only artificial so that they can divert the funds into unknown accounts. You will see. You really want the Philippines to come back again into agriculture. The government should draft a policy that OFW or any Filipino has the right to present the country to any foreign investor or are authorized to conduct investment opportunity to bring foreign investors, that the government only support them not interfering for their self interest

Somebody had asked whether the Philippines is a good place to live? My answer in a big NO. Government officials in this country (Congress, Senate and their friends) are the only who got much benefits from the people's taxes but the government employees are very poor. In fact, farmers have a better life than the salary grade six government employees.
There are many broken families because parents cannot take good care of their children because they work abroad, because the Philippine government cannot afford to give them jobs here.
The Philippines is not a good mother because she allows her children to move away. A Hen is much better because the hen collects her chicks under her wings protecting them.

Grow much more and you have more to export
And Also to keep peopel bussy and mabye not import so much
And the food Will be cheaper in your contry
But sad as it is to see so much land waste
There is so much good farm land there is undevelop
Wich could be good farming land for cheap monye
But not manye take that chance
But With a pupolation grow on 2% per year
Out of 100 million peopel there Will be a need for a lot food in the future !!
So hope sombody Will Care soon to develop a morden agriculutre in phillippines !!

67

68

Lorden gonsales

It's currupt from top to buttom !!
And as long it is that our contry can't get investorer to put up factories and get peopel imployed.
And we Will still have a huge labor force With no work !!
And in my opinion ... I dont tink peopel outsider Will c*ntinio to employ us if we not get our sh*t toghter
Right now i can't see any hope for us pilipino !!
And its to sad
We are all strugling to survive Except our goverment employer
Hope our farmers not give up .. So we still have food on our tabel

Hi to everyone, what kind of crops to good produce, and adaptable on weather this year?

78

Stephen C.

I stumbled across this article. I am from Jamaica. Just like the Philippines, agriculture here is very unstainable, it seems most of the tropical countries have been exploited and ruined from the lack of support to farmers. Farmers here use too much herbicides, fertilizers, and insecticides. There are virtually no organic products offered, the only organic farmers are rich and just import their needed products from first world countries.

79

Cyrup Geenes

The Philippines is a great place. Even though there were no crops originated from it. and, that it doesn't seem it is an important country or island. All those haters that are hating on the Philippines are just mean and they should appreciate it still being here.

Andrew Joseph P. Weber

Good day!

I am a new faculty researcher in a certain university and I am acquainting myself with Philippine journals and their statuses and the basics of research publications within or without the country.

I have known that a researcher is mandated, said to me by my head, to give a copy of their work to a Philippine government agency to which the research papers appropriately belong to, according to the nature of the research study. I am currently making my proposal about groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) properties and its effective shelling operation. The first main problem that is extremely to be refrained from is the duplication or redundancy of researches. That is why I look for different Philippine journals and do a literature review. However, I didn't find any closely related to my proposal.

The reasons for that are: maybe the study that I am undertaking is new, or, most probably the study has been published in international journals. Whichever the case, since they are required to give a copy of their research to a suitable Philippine government agencies, then the Philippine government agencies must have ample amount of information.

So you see what the problem is: the difficulty of seeking research studies about Philippine settings done by Filipino researchers. It is because those studies are distributed among different Philippine agencies. Now what I propose as a solution is a central data base for all research studies, that are in different Philippine agencies, grouped together according to which categories they belong.

It is wasteful in resources to redo studies that have already been done, but it cannot be easily checked because of the difficulty of doing it since those studies are scattered everywhere. Please let me know if there's something I don't understand about the current said current situations. I just wanna help.

Sincerely yours,

Weber
