EXPLANATORY NOTES

This quarterly Bulletin provides updates on basic production data on major vegetables and root crops, namely, mongo, peanut, cabbage, eggplant, tomato, garlic, onion, sweet potato and cassava. These crops are highlighted in the report on the Performance of Agriculture which the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) releases every quarter. This issue of the Bulletin contains the preliminary estimates of production in October-December 2014 and January-December 2014. It also comprise information on area harvested in the second half and the whole year of 2014 which are being reported on a semi-annual basis. The source of data is the quarterly Crop Production Survey (CrPS) of the PSA.

Mongo • Production in this quarter was estimated at 3.05 thousand mt, 0.7 percent

higher than the 3.03 thousand mt record in the same period of 2013 (Table 1).

• The increase was primarily due to the following: o planting of mongo in damaged corn areas in some municipalities of

Cagayan; o favorable rainfall in Davao del Norte and Davao del Sur coupled with less

incidence of aphids infestations in Davao City; and o increasing local demand in the provinces of Caraga.

• Production this quarter represented 10.0 percent of the 5-year annual average

of mongo production.

• The top producing regions during the quarter were ARMM, Davao Region and Ilocos Region (Figure 2).

Peanut • During the quarter, production was estimated at 8.68 thousand mt. It

decreased by 0.7 percent from its 2013 level of 8.75 thousand mt (Table 1).

• This increase in output was attributed to: o increase production areas and early control of leaf spot and thrips in Ilocos

Norte; o better yield attributed to favorable weather during the production period in

Cebu; o occasional rainfall favored better pod formation in Capiz and Negros

Occidental; o high market demand in Zamboanga del Sur and Zamboanga Sibugaya; and, o increase area as alternate crops for corn in crop rotation system in Sultan

Kudarat.

• This quarter’s production was 29.3 percent of the 5-year annual average production of peanut.

Eggplant • Production of eggplant during this quarter was 23.65 thousand mt. This was

5.7 percent higher than the 22.37 thousand mt production in the same period of last year (Table 1).

• The increase was due to the following factors: o favorable weather condition in all production areas in the provinces of

Cagayan Valley; o lesser attack of fruit borer in Quezon; o better yield observed in Negros Occidental; o increase production areas in Iloilo, Capiz and Guimaras; o seeds distribution by Local Government Units (LGUs) in Compostela

Valley and Davao Oriental and by the Department of Agriculture-Regional Field Unit (DA-RFU) in Bohol, Agusan Sur and Surigao Norte; and

o sustained use of high yielding varieties (HYVs) in Zamboanga City.

• This quarter’s output was about 11.3 percent of the country’s 5-year annual average eggplant production.

• The bulk of production for this period came from CALABARZON, Central Luzon and Central Visayas (Figure 8).

Sweet Potato • Production of sweet potato during the period decreased by 1.6 percent from

528.25 thousand mt in 2013 to 519.85 thousand mt in 2014 (Table 1).

• The decrease was brought about by the following factors: o effect of excessive rain in Sarangani and Sultan Kudarat; o some areas in Isabela shifted to cassava and in North Cotabato to rubber; o decrease in area in Southern Leyte; and o adverse effect of typhoon “Glenda” in Bicol Region last July 2014.

• The top producing regions were Eastern Visayas, Bicol Region and Western Visayas with combined share of 47.0 percent to the national output (Table 11).

Cassava • Cassava production grew by 7.5 percent from 2.36 million mt last year to 2.54 million

mt this year (Table 1).

• This production growth was due to: o increase in area planted due to available market in Isabela; o better cultivar provided by San Miguel Corporation (SMC) and Kraft Food

International in Zamboanga City; o increase in area planted due to sufficient rain in Sarangani and good buying price

in Sultan Kudarat; o Local Government Unit (LGU) assistance of planting materials in Davao Oriental

and expansion of areas in Davao City, Compostela Valley and Davao del Norte; o increase in area and improvement in yield due to government interventions in

Mindoro Oriental; and o increase number of contract growers of SMC in Bukidnon.

• This year’s bulk of harvest came from ARMM (41.2%), Northern Mindanao (26.2%) and Cagayan Valley (5.3%) (Table 12).

10 25

Tomato • The fourth quarter production of tomato decreased by 0.4 percent or from

28.01 thousand mt in 2013 to 27.89 thousand mt this year (Table 1).

• The following factors led to the negative production growth: o some areas shifted to habitcuelas and other areas were in fallow in

Laguna; o effects of frequent rains in Cebu; o shifting of some areas to pineapple and Cavendish banana in Misamis

Oriental; and o crop shifting to eggplant in Davao Sur.

• Production during the quarter shared 13.7 percent of the 5-year annual

average output.

• Northern Mindanao contributed 59.0 percent to the country’s production this quarter (Figure 10).

Tomato • The January-December 2014 production of tomato increased by 3.3 percent or from

207.67 thousand mt in 2013 to 214.57 thousand mt this year (Table 1).

• The following factors led to the positive production growth: o less infestation of tomato beetle and aphids and used of HYVs in Zamboanga

City; o more fruits harvested due to sufficient soil moisture in CAR and Central Visayas; o increase in area harvested attributed to sustained market demand and high

price in Ilocos Region and SOCCSKSARGEN; o less weather disturbance and increase area harvested due to food production

project through the Office of the Provincial Agriculture (OPAG) in Cagayan Valley;

o increase planting density and more fertilizer usage in Nueva Ecija; o increase in area harvested in Iloilo, Antique, Guimaras; and o improvement in yield in Negros Occidental.

• Ilocos region contributed 33.8 percent of the country’s tomato production in 2014 (Table 7).

Garlic • Production was 9.07 thousand mt or 1.0 percent higher than the 8.99 thousand mt

level in the same period of 2013 (Table 1).

• The increase in production was attributed to: o increase in area harvested due to shifting from tomato in Ilocos Region; o additional area planted in Itbayat; and o increase in yield brought by even distribution of rain from growing to clove

development in Iloilo.

• The top producing regions were Ilocos Region, MIMAROPA and Cagayan Valley with combined share of ninety-three (93.0) percent to the country’s garlic production (Table 8).

12 23

Garlic • Production of garlic was 1.20 mt or 380.0 percent higher than the 0.25 mt

output in the same period of 2013.

• The increase in production was mainly attributed to the introduction of garlic farming by the High Value Crop Development Program (HVCDP) of the Department of Agriculture (DA) in Siquijor which produced 1.10 mt during the quarter.

• At the national level, this quarter’s production was about 0.01 percent of the

5-year annual average garlic production.

• Central Visayas was the top producer of garlic in the fourth quarter of 2014 (Figure 12).

Mongo • Production was estimated at 32.14 thousand mt. This was lower by 0.9

percent from the 32.42 thousand mt record in the same period of 2013 (Table 1).

• The decrease was primarily due to: o decrease in area harvested in Ifugao and Cebu; o adverse effect of typhoon “Glenda” in Bicol Region; o decrease in production area in Lanao del Norte and shifting to tomato in

Bukidnon; o effects of flood/standing water in North Cotabato and Sultan Kudarat; and o shifting to palm oil and rubber in some areas in North Cotabato.

• Ilocos Region posted the highest production at 12.11 thousand mt and contributed 37.7 percent to the total production of the country (Table 3).

Peanut • During the quarter, production was estimated at 8.68 thousand mt. It

decreased by 0.7 percent from its 2013 level of 8.75 thousand mt (Table 1).

• This increase in output was attributed to: o increase production areas and early control of leaf spot and thrips in Ilocos

Norte; o better yield attributed to favorable weather during the production period in

Cebu; o occasional rainfall favored better pod formation in Capiz and Negros

Occidental; o high market demand in Zamboanga del Sur and Zamboanga Sibugaya; and, o increase area as alternate crops for corn in crop rotation system in Sultan

Kudarat.

• This quarter’s production was 29.3 percent of the 5-year annual average production of peanut.
