The Philippines’ agriculture sector continues to play a vital role in terms of food production.
Agriculture, which is made up of four sub-sectors (crops, livestock, poultry and fisheries), is the main source of livelihood for 25-30 percent of the labor force. It contributes about 10 percent to the gross national product.
Farming and fishing households, however, face high levels of food insecurity as a result of natural disasters such as typhoons, earthquakes and floods. Decades of conflict has further exacerbated poverty and food insecurity in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao, the country’s poorest region. These events have resulted in the displacement of agriculture-dependent families, which further imposes limitations to their sources of income and food.
In addition, agriculture is absolutely central to achieving regional food security and the promotion of sustainable agriculture. Aside from different factors affecting this sector, having a dependable and world-class feed brand is also essential in helping achieve the country’s goal in solving the country’s issues on food security.
Fortunately, we have global companies who are operating in the country who are not just after profits but also up to the challenge of helping our farmers with their quality feeds requirements.
