THE PHILIPPINES needs to develop a comprehensive farming-industry database to improve food production and GUIDE policy decisions, food advocacy group Tugon Kabuhayan said.

“Reliable data will guide us what and when to produce and help us evaluate whether imports are indeed necessary for a certain commodity and season,” Mr. Chingcuanco said.
He said food production can be improved by reducing the agriculture sector’s postharvest losses, noting that around 25% is usually lost in the supply chain. ....

This was declared by United Broiler Raisers’ Association (UBRA) President Bong Inciong during the Farmers and Fisherfolks Congress on Friday. According to Inciong, the country’s food producers are now experiencing the worst crisis in years amid the pandemic due to several factors, such as “decades of government neglect, the prevalence of COVID-19 pandemic, and pro-importation policies of the government.”

“We are now paying the price for the long-term neglect of the sector. The economy and our people would not be as badly hit if agri-fisheries were in a better place [prior to the pandemic],” Inciong said. ....
