Message from the Chairman of the Board

Pinasasalamatan natin ang lahat ng myembro ng SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project (ADP) Board, SOCSKSARGEN Technical Team, Project Monitoring Team at Project Management Unit sa kanilang naging kontribusyon at masigasig na pagtugon sa adhikain at mga isyu sa ilalim ng SOCSKSARGEN ADP - Integrated Food Security Program (IFSP). Nitong nakaraang taon ay ating nasilayan ang mga konkretong proyekto tulad ng farm-to-market roads dito sa SOCSKSARGEN. Sinimulan natin ang pagkonkreto ng daan noong 2011 alinsunod sa utos ng gobyerno na gawing matibay at climate-resilient ang mga kalsada upang maging kapaki-pakinabang sa anumang oras at panahon. Mas mapapabilis nito ang daloy ng mga produkto sa pamilihan at pasisiglahin nito ang ekonomiya ng rural areas. Kung kaya’t sa susunod pang mga taon ay maasahan natin ang pagiging produktibo ng mga lugar na pinaglaanan natin ng mga proyekto. Hangad din natin na maisaayos ang mga kakulangan sa mga paliparan at pantalan ng Lungsod Heneral Santos para sa lumalaking supply ng produkto at export volume na nanggagaling pa sa iba’t – ibang probinsya ng SOCSKSARGEN. Masaya tayo sa positibong pagtugon ng Department of Transportation and Communications sa pangangailangan ng mga port users sa rehiyon at sa patuloy nitong aktibong pakikipag-ugnayan sa atin sa pamamagitan ng SOCSKSARGEN ADP Board. Ang operasyon ng SOCSKSARGEN ADP sa susunod pang tatlong taon ay atin ding pinagtibay upang maipagpatuloy natin ang magandang pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga lokal na pamahalaan at pribadong sektor at mas mapapabilis natin ang pagpapatupad ng mga proyekto at paglago ng sektor ng agrikultura sa rehiyon. Maraming salamat sa tiwala ninyo sa ating gobyerno at sa inyong patuloy na aktibong pakikipagtulungan sa ating kagawaran. Mabuhay!

Message from the Vice Chairperson

My greetings of peace and food security to everyone! Ating pinasasalamatan ang bawat local government unit, iba’t ibang ahensya ng gobyerno at pribadong sektor sa rehiyon na kumakatawan sa SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project Office sa magandang samahan at kooperasyon habang ating itanataguyod ang mga plano at proyekto sa ilalim ng SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Program (IFSP). Malaking bahagi ng ating napondohan sa SOCSKSARGEN IFSP ay para sa pagsasaayos ng mga daan sa kanayunan kung saan may malaking bahagi ng produksyon. Malaki ang naitulong ng mga farm-to-market roads sa mabilis at maayos na daloy ng mga produkto patungo sa merkado at maging ng mga pangangailangan ng ating mga magsasaka upang mapalago ang kanilang ani. Nitong 2013, ilang postharvest facilities din ang ating initayo upang matulungan ang ating mga magsasaka na tumaas ang kalidad ng kanilang mga produkto at magkaroon ng dagdag kita. Sa pamamagitan ng report na ito ay masaya naming maipamamahagi ang naging kontribusyon ng SOCSKSARGEN IFSP sa sektor ng agrikultura dito sa ating rehiyon, at ang mga magagandang bagay na naidulot ng programa sa ating komunidad. Nawa’y magbigay inspirasyon ito sa lahat, lalo na sa mga lokal na pamahalaan, upang pagibayuhin pa ang mga programa at pakikipagtulungan para sa masaganang agrikultura. Maraming salamat po.

EMMYLOU TALIĂ‘O MENDOZA Governor, North Cotabato

Message from the Project Manager

It has been three years since we got the approval of the Department of Agriculture (DA) and His Excellency President Benigno Simeon Aquino III for the continued coordinative efforts of the SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project Office under the DA – Locally Funded Projects and vibrant leadership of Secretary Proceso J. Alcala. CY 2013 has been a rewarding and challenging journey for the SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Program. Firstly, we have attained significant accomplishments on farm-to-market (FMR) and techno-demonstration projects, and smooth coordination on major infrastructure projects. The implementation of agricultural equipment and facilities has been coping considering the various project components. Secondly, there have been changes in the prioritization of projects since this office is encouraged to implement FMR network services to give focus on much needed services. The good news is we will have more better roads in SOCSKSARGEN in the years to come. Lastly, the agency was given PhP 325.131 M in 2014 GAA – the highest budget this office has ever received from the government in a decade. Sa lahat ng ating nagawa at napagtagumpayan sa SOCSKSARGEN IFSP ay atin pong pinasasalamatan ang ating mga pinuno sa gobyerno, lahat ng miyembro ng SOCSKSARGEN ADP Board, mga partner sa lokal na pamahalaan, ang SOCSKSARGEN Technical at Project Monitoring Teams sa suporta at kasipagan na kanilang ipinamalas. There is a huge task ahead of us. So I continually and earnestly request everyone, especially the local government partners, thru the SOCSKSARGEN Technical Team, for their full cooperation and dedication to the program inorder to hit our targets come 2014. Mabuhay!

executive summary

T

he SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Program (IFSP) of the SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project Office (ADPO) is one with the government in achieving the goal for sustainable agrcultural development and inclusive growth. Building sufficient and effective infrastructure and agri-support system to expedite product delivery, reduce handling cost, and stimulate production to optimize utilization of agricultural areas is where the SOCSKSARGEN IFSP contributes. For CY 2013, the agency prioritizes the concreting of farm-tomarket roads (FMR) that will stand amidst climate uncertainties and construction of 5 agricultural facilities with equipment that would help increase production and enhance product quality. The program also covers the continued support for the improvement of major infrastructure in the area such as the airport and sea port. At the end of CY 2013, the agency completed a total of 5.385 Kms of FMR out of the 7.283 Km-target; while the construction of production support and postproduction infrastructure are on-going which will be completed within the 1st semester of 2014 as per contract. Overall, the implementation of the projects this year have fared well despite some delays due to the midterm and barangay elections and tansition process at the Local Government Units (LGU), tedious government requirements and processes i.e. LGU counterpart, and the weather disturbance. On a brighter note, this year’s accomplishments brought the cumulative physical performance from 2003 to 2013 to 96% with the increased number of completed projects. Completed projects include the rehabilitation of 206.53 Kms, opening of 1.68 Kms, and concreting od 17.11 Kms of FMR and construction of 3 component bridges (85 lm total); rehabilitation of 34 irrigation facilities; establishment/installation of 62 agri-fishery facilities and equipment; implementaton of a regulatory-support project; and provision of

extension services in support to the local government units (LGUs) and farmers. These projects have served the component LGUs of SOCSKSARGEN and almost 307,000 populace and farmers region-wide. Moreover, the coordinative efforts of the SOCSKSARGEN ADPO is integral in the implementation of the SOCSKSARGEN IFSP. Through a strong publicprivate coordinating mechanism and strengthened partnerships with the local and national government agencies and Civil Society Organizations, the major infrastructure projects and other priority programs and projects in support to food security and inclusive growth of the region have been undertaken. The stakeholders meetings and consultations have been slowly gaining results particularly on the development of the General Santos City (GSC) Airport. The resolutions passed and approved by the SOCSKSARGEN ADP Board and the General Santos City Aiport Task Force are gradually being addressed so that recommended policies and tangible projects would soon take place. The updating of the Strategic Agricultural and Fishery Development Zones (SAFDZ) per municipality has been started and would be consolidated for use in region-wide planning, managament of resources, and information database. The approval of the yearly budget of SOCSKSARGEN ADPO for the SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Porgram is indeed significant in our quest for regional sustainable agri-development and inclusive growth. The active involvement of the LGUs, which commit a yearly allocation of 15% to fund agri-infrastructure projects in their respective areas under the IFSP is making the partnership more dynamic and progressive each year. Three years more and there would be significant impacts resulting from these projects, simultaneously as we plan for the remaining targets and activities under the agency’s medium term plan.


SOCSKSARGEN

Area Development Project Office The SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project Office (ADPO) was established through the efforts and initiatives of the multi-sector stakeholders and Local Chief Executives of the region in 1991. It was coordinated by the Coordinating Council of the Philippine Assistance Program (CCPAP) and the Regional Development Council XI, when SOCSKSARGEN (South Cotabato/ Cotabato/Sultan Kudarat/Sarangani/General Santos City), formerly known as SOCGEN (South Cotabato/General Santos City), was identified as one of the Area Development Zones (ADZ) that would potentially contribute in the pump-priming and the integration of the economies of Mindanao.

From 1991 to 1999, the SOCSKSARGEN ADPO successfully facilitated the implementation of the largest single geographical concentration of infrastructural projects in the area, such as the construction of airport, fish port, sea port, road networks and installation of telecommunication system, funded through USAID and other foreign agencies under the Mindanao Development Plan of the Philippine Assistance Program.

The Office has been granted several term extensions by virtue of Executive Orders (EO) issued by the President, thereby expanding its coverage to include Sarangani, Sultan Kudarat and North Cotabato provinces. The latest Executive Order was signed by His Excellency Benigno Simeon C. Aquino III. The ADPO, through EO No. 16, Series of 2010 extended the coordinative function of the office term until December 31, 2016, in view of the continuing need to fast-track the construction and upgrading of vital infrastructures (e.g. airport, sea port, road networks) and to sustain regional efforts, particularly in the implementation of food security and key development plans and programs in support to peace and development in Mindanao.

Carry-Over Projects In addition, a total of 8.37 Kms was completed from the CYs 2011-2012 funded projects. However, two FMR projects located in Sultan Kudarat are still on-going which were hampered by incessant rainfall causing damage on the road projects and on the access road going to the project area. The construction schedule for these projects will be extended as a result of the suspension order and proposed variation order. Meanwhile, 15 mini corn mills and 3 additional mini corn shellers were turned-over to the Provincial Government of Sarangani in march 2013, for distribution to 15 upland farmer-organizations.

Accomplishment by Major Final Output (MFO) Farm-to-Market Roads Bulk of the budget for CYs 2012-2013 SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Program was alloted to farm-to-market roads (FMR). In 2013, 11 farm to market road concreting projects with a total target road length of 16.15 kms under the CYs 2012-2013 funds were carried-out, through the 85% DA – 15% LGU counterparting scheme. These FMR projects once completed will benefit 28,699 populace and improved a production area of 4,788 hectares for rice, corn, high value crops and vegetables. As of December 31, 2013, overall cumulative physical accomplishment under CY 2012 funding was assessed at 91.62% comprising the completion of 8 kms road concreting projects (5 completed and 1 on-going). Additional structures as per approved program were also undertaken including 1,621.40 l.m. concrete/CHB open lined canal, 68 l.m. retaining wall and 35 l.m. RCP cross drainage structures with concrete headwalls on both sides. The implementation of BasakBulalawan FMR concreting project in Lebak, Sultan Kudarat was recommended for termination by the implementing due to its delayed implementation and the pulling out of the contractor’s equipment and personnel from the project site. For CY 2013, a total of 4 FMR concreting projects covering 7.283 kms is being implemented. Of this total target, 5.385 kms have been completed. Totall FMR accomplishment under the CY 2013 funding stands at 66.18%, which covers additional structures like 67 l.m. RCPC cross drainage structures and 3 units Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert to protect the road projects.

SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project: | Accomplishments Hybrid rice shown remarkable performance in areas of North Cotabato and General Santos City with favorable condition. While Sultan Kudarat has not reached the minimum average yield of 5.0 MT due to pest infestation. Farm walks were conducted to demonstration sites in close coordination with the concerned LGUs, to respond to the actual crop problems of the farmers. The concerned LGUs continuously provide technical assistance to farmer-beneficiaries during land preparation to harvesting phase. The office conducted a 3-day training on Commercial Hybrid Rice Basic Cultivation to capacitate the farmers in hybrid technology last April 2013 to 22 farmers and 8 facilitators in region 12, facilitated by PhilRice and ATI XII. The participants were also exposed to hybrid demonstration areas in Barangay Ligaya, General Santos City.

2. Inbred Rice Seeds Production Techno-demo The Rice Techno-demo (varietal trial) aims to efficiently showcase the adaptability and stability of new released rice varieties (inbred) recommended in the area. Moreover, the program supports the Department of Agriculture’s initiative of improving rice production through the use of quality seeds (certified seeds) along with proven rice farming technologies. The planting materials (foundation seeds) and farm inputs were provided by SOCSKSARGEN ADPO through its R & D Program. Partner agencies like Philrice, Bureau of Plant and Industry and Agricultural Training Institute provided the technical assistance and training. LGUs were involved to supervise the farmers in the program implementation.

GEOTAGGING : to Promote Project Transparency and Accountability

G

eo-tagging is the process of adding geographical information to various media in the form of metadata. The data usually consists of coordinates like latitude and longitude, but may even include bearing, altitude, distance and place names. Geotagging represents a revolutionary ICT tool given that it can provide geographically precise information in a user-friendly and cost-effective manner. In 2011, the Philippines’ Second Mindanao Rural Development Program (MRDP 2) incorporated the use of geo-tagging into its project operations in order to enhance the transparency, oversight and coordination of the program’s development activities. Their application of geo-tagging technology was a recipient of a ‘Good Practice Award” from the National Economic Development Authority. The geo-tagging tool is particularly valuable in the context of the MRDP

32

2 given the challenges to project oversight and implementation in this setting. Several sub-projects are widely dispersed across Mindanao, and accessibility to remote or conflict-affected project sites is often limited. Geo-tagging can address these challenges by enabling implementing agents to better validate and monitor project activities without having to visit the sites that are difficult and costly to access. Moreover, geo-tagging is used by the MRDP 2 as an anti-corruption tool that enables bidders, administrators and citizens to better monitor the project procurement process by linking projects to their bidding and contract information online. Given the demonstrated value of geo-tagging, the SOCSKSARGEN Area Development Project Board adopted the application of geo-tagging technology through a Board Resolution No. 1 approved last November 20, 2012 to further complement the SOCSKSARGEN Food Security

Program Implementation Mechanism. For this reason, a 3-day geo-tagging training was conducted last April 10-12, 2013 at Sun City Suites, General Santos City, with Engr. Samuel J. Belamide, MRDP 2 Geo-Mapping Specialist, as the guest speaker. The training aims to enhance the execution of applied geo-tagging technology for personnel from partner LGUs directly involve in the implementation of SOCSKSARGEN Food Security Program. Moreover, to further update the personnel with the new mechanisms and to be precisely knowledgeable on the guidelines and procedures of SOCSKSARGEN FSP in the application of geotagging technology, a 2-day refresher training workshop was successfully conducted last October 24-25, 2013. LGUs are then required to submit geo-tag data as an acquired procedure for project validation for their proposed FSP CY 2014-2016 projects.

The SOCSKSARGEN ADP Office has been closely coordinating and monitoring with the concerned agencies the implementation of the following major infrastructure and development initiatives in the growth area:

GSC Airport Development

T

he General Santos City airport was formerly known as Rajah Buayan airport situated at a 62 has. area at Brgy, Buayan, GSC. In 1993, the Buayan airport showed tremendous increase in traffic passengers and cargo freight volume, heading clamors for a wider and efficient cargo holding airport that would accommodate various types of aircraft in the area. With significant upsurge of economy in General Santos City and adjacent provinces, establishment and improvement of vital support infrastructures such as

the airport, fish port, and seaports were conceptualized. From 1991-1996, various development initiatives in SOCGEN corridor were implemented under the SOCGEN Integrated Development Program, which then includes the construction of the new GSC airport. The construction of new GSC Airport was constructed under the SOCSKSARGEN-Area Development Plan jointly funded by the Philippine government and the United States Agency for International Development

(USAID) amounting to US $47.6 million. Situated at Brgy. Fatima General Santos City, the initiative aimed to upgrade air services in SOCSKSARGEN for its growing cargo and passenger requirements. The GSC airport construction was completed and started its commercial operation in July 1996 under the management of then Air Transportation Office (ATO) presently known as Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP). At present, rapid development of economy in SOCSKSARGEN region brought increase of operational activities of the airport such as

33


boost of passengers and cargo volume passing the facilities over the years, and numerous airline companies are now offering services to the locality. With this, improvements of airport facilities and operation is needed. With the support of the ADP Board through approved resolution, DOTC commissioned the conduct of the study entitled “Study on the development of GSC Aerotropolis�

amounting to PhP 12 million. The conduct of the study was awarded to Engineering and Development Corporation of the Philippines (EDCOP) which commenced on May 2014 and lasted for 4 months. In the completion of the study, the consultant highly recommended the construction of a New Passenger Airport Terminal Building of approximately 6,000 sq. m. with provision of additional apron space

and conversion of the existing Passenger Airport Terminal Building to a Cargo Terminal. The said initiative will adequately cater the projected passenger traffic demand of about 1.6 Million by the year 2020. The total project cost to meet all the capital requirements for the said proposal is PhP 1.7 Billion and target implementation is by 2016 upon approval of project and availability of funding.

Glan Port Rehabilitation:

G

lan Port development is in support of the formalization of cross-border trade and mobility between Jose Abad Santos-GlanSarangani Cooperation Triangle (JAGS-CT) member municipalities and Tahuna Indonesia. The cooperation triangle was

34

established to develop the area as an alternative economic and trading hub in BIMP-EAGA. A new BIMP-EAGA route is being explored to include the Port of Tahuna in Indonesia presenting shorter route to Mindanao, its newest point being the Port of Glan.

The construction of RoRo ramp, RC landing and maneuvering area for the port of Glan was completed in November 2012. Widening of rock causeway, construction of security fence, main gate and guard house as well as the passenger terminal building are among proposed projects under CY 2014.

Modernization and Privatization of Makar Port

T

he Port of General Santos or known as Makar Wharf, lies at the head of Sarangani bay in the southern coast of Mindanao. It is one of the base ports in Southern Philippines that serve as the gateway of agricultural and marine products of SOCSKSARGEN area to the national and international market. In 1994, the development of the port was initiated through a collaborative effort of the Philippine Government and United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under the Mindanao Development Project amounting to US$ 10,175,388. The project was designed to improve port services and provide adequate cargo handling capacity to meet the expected demand up to year 2010. The expansion

also facilitates product and passenger’s mobility through sea routes thereby adding opportunities for more investments. However, the Makar port has been confronted with various issues and concerns relative to its operation and management that hinder efficient utilization of the facilities such as transportation of agri products and mobilization of people. In recent development, the Board through resolution no. 04, series of 2013 requested DOTC to conduct the study on the modernization and privatization of the General Santos City Seaport. PPA has already committed to undertake the procurement of consultancy service for the conduct of the study.

Central Mindanao Airport

T

he Central Mindanao Airport, formerly known as the M’lang Secondary airport was initiated to improve socio-economic condition in the area and provide more economic enterprises generating more revenues for both local and national government. The project is expected to increase income of agri producers/farmers in the area by providing additional facility to market their products with reduced travel cost and time and would also aid to boost employment and eco-tourism of the area. The airport is comprised of 60 m x 2,300 m runway,

36

1,500 square meter parking lot, Apron, Perimeter fence, Access road, Terminal and Administration Building with communication facilities, acquisition of fire rescue vehicle and 64 hectares land. DOTC has commissioned the expansion of the Central Mindanao airport amounting to PhP 160 million under CY 2012 budget. The project was awarded to VT Lao Construction amounting to PhP 110,290,575.70 with construction duration of 360 days. As of December 2013, the project has 28.05% accomplishment.

Intra-Regional Road Network Development

A

Technical Working Group (TWG) was created by the Board chaired by the DPWH-Central Office representative. Several road projects were proposed by the LGU’s for development which will facilitate faster movement of goods and people. Initial evaluation on the proposed projects by DPWH was completed and conduct of a full blown feasibility study (FS) is

recommended. DPWH committed to assist the LGUs in the preparation of FS for their priority road and bridge projects. A seminar-workshop on FS preparation was conducted last February 19-21, 2013 with resource speakers from DPWH-CO. The output of the workshop were project proposals and draft FS of priority road projects by the LGUs for ready reference and for future funding.

Completion of on-going key road networks

A

s part of the mandate of SOCSKSARGEN ADPO, coordination and monitoring of various road development projects in the growth region with intra-regional impact are being undertaken.

The construction of the GSC Circumferential Road is on-going and funds for its full completion were included by DPWH in CY 2014 and it is targeted to complete by 2016. The South Cotabato-Sarangani Eco-tourism road located in Lake Sebu and Maitum is being implemented phase by phase by DPWH. On-going road construction are also being implemented by DPWH on Awang-Upi-Lebak-Kalamansig-Palimbang-Sarangani road and Isulan-Bagumbayan-SNAKalamansig road.

Exterior Perspective of the Wholesale Trading Building

Integrated Economic Development for Regional Trade

T

he Integrated Economic Development for Regional Trade (IEDRT) is one of the investment areas that the City Government of General Santos has offer to the private sector through Private-Public Partnership (PPP) arrangement. Once IEDRT is established, it will spur economic growth and expansion in the SOCCSKSARGEN region with General Santos City as the major food supplier and trading hub particularly for export of agricultural products from the region and other nearby provinces. Generally, it will provide better opportunities to people and commodities within the region. With its modern facilities, agricultural production and marketing, and food processing and packaging will be improved and enhanced and will eventually, provide better income to the people. This proposed project is composed of an Integrated Food Terminal (IFT), redevelopment of Central Public Market with and Support Infrastructure. • The IFT is envisioned to be a wholesale agricultural produce marketing facility with abattoirs and food processing center aimed at improving the forward and backward linkages between the producers and consumers as well as the users of the facilities. It will provide the infrastructure to streamline the food supply chain from the farm to the market, and provide value-adding services to the supply chain stakeholders. • The Central Public Market is proposed to be the anchor of a modern shopping center that has a distinctive section for Muslim products including “halal food”, a modern fish and seafood section together with fruit and vegetable section, entertainment facilities, dry goods section, restaurants, community event area and sufficient off-street parking.

• Support Infrastructure to be provided include the improved road transport, transport terminal/station in the IFT area, solid waste management and wastewater treatment facilities for IFT and CPM. Proposed Central Public Market Redevelopment - Aerial Perspective

SAFDZ Map Updating Workshop in Kidapawan, North Cotabato

Development Zones Updated T

he Strategic Agricultural and Fisheries Development Zones (SAFDZ) were being identified for production, agro-processing and marketing activities to help develop and modernize the agriculture and fisheries sectors of an area. Significantly, this will help rationalize the allocation and use of the remaining and available lands in the country and set aside strategically-located prime agriculture lands for future development. However, due to rapid urban and rural development in SOCCSKSARGEN due to population growth, climate change, high risk disasters, enhancement of resources within the current identified SAFDZs can hardly be achieved. Moreover, current SAFDZ information of LGUs was based on old data (1998-2000 data), thus, not reliable reference for present land-use planning.

Impact Stories Kids doing manual corn shelling at Sitio Ihan, Brgy. Datal Anggas, Alabel, Sarangani Province

Maizes to Pieces “Work hard for your food, until your face is covered with sweat” - a passage from the Bible

says. Literally, corn consuming villagers in the far flung areas of Sarangani Province have to sweat it out first pounding and grinding their corn to pieces with a millstone before anyone can cook and eat a decent meal. Due to unavailabilty of post-harvest facilities like corn mills and corn shellers, remote villagers have to deal with these time-consuming and laborious means of processing their maize both for consumption and for trade. This scenario in the remote villages of Sarangani Province is nothing new, though. Hence, under the CY 2013 SOCSKSARGEN Integrated Food Security Program, the Provincial Government of Sarangani proposed for the procurement of 15 corn shellers and 15 corn mills for the upland corn barangays of the province, specifically for the twenty three (23) registered farmer organizations with more than 700 corn farmer-members. “Shelling the corn with bare hands will take a

person two days to fill the 10 sacks. That’s exhausting!”, said Mr. Arthur Muyak, Chairman of Kyumad Micro Farmers Association in Maasim.“With these facilities, my people will be having more time tending their farm and goats”, he said further. Indeed, these post-harvest facilities are vital to farmers in order to reduce post-harvest losses, maintain the quality and even extend the shelflife of their products, and thereby command higher market price.

Three more corn shellers were distributed to the province last year as there were savings from the procurement process. The 23 farmerorganizations have undergone the validation process of the SOCSKSARGEN Area Developemnt Project Office and the Provincial Agriculture Office of Sarangani, and have fully met the guidelines and requirements of the Department of Agriculture.

Inbred Rice Seed Production Techno-Demo of Mr. Virgilio Paje of Lambayong, Sultan Kudarat

Smart farming through TechnoDemos

Farming is a risk! Local farmers definitely will agree as farming faces risks from climate change, pests and diseases, and rising production costs. A farmer needs to be smart to earn a profit.

R

The program was designed to guide farmers in the locality to choose rice varieties that demonstrate high yielding capabilities and good market value. Technodemonstrations were conducted on accessible pilotareas to also promote the latest and effective hybrid and inbred rice farming techniques to surrounding farmers. Demonstration area varies from 0.5- 1.0 hectare with planting materials and farm inputs provided by DASOCSKSARGEN ADPO. Throughout the Region, ADPO in collaboration with PhilRice-Midsayap and the LGUs, had implemented fifty six (56) techno-demos. ” Choosing a poor variety to plant is a sure failure. A variety recommended in Sultan Kudarat may not grow well in GenSan. That’s why we need this guide and it’s very helpful”, Mr. Rogelio Rodrigo, a rice-farmer of General Santos City expressed.

River? No Problem! ‘Slamat Dwata, Ta-af ngu! (Thanks God, It’s already finish)’, were the words shouted by Pablo Mama, a Blaan farmer of Purok Fataldao, Brgy. San Jose in General Santos City as he recalls the completion of Fataldao Bridge back in 2009.

Y

ears back, villagers of Prk. Fataldao, predominantly occupied by a Blaan tribe, have to cross a river to avail services and trade their produce, mainly corn, banana and copra to nearest market. Yet, during rainy seasons, vehicles could not ply across the raging river and villagers have to take farther alternative routes that pass through another barangay. This means delay of services, added transport costs, undelivered products, and a season of exasperation.

42

With the construction of Fataldao Bridge , a project proposed by the Local Government of General Santos City through the DASOCSKSARGEN Food Security Program crossing the river is ‘ i’se problema (a problem no more), Pablo affirmed. Moreover, volume of transport and marketing system had then improved as vehicles and other motorized means of transportation existed. Farmers also gained increased and easy availability of agricultural inputs, technology

and services were availed on time. This has lead to increased production, crop diversification and opening up of new production areas. Newly appointed Barangay Chairman Abdul Rahim Paidumama estimated that almost 200 hectares of idle lands is now being cultivated for production of agricultural crops.“The bridge is a great help. People can now trade our products any time, even on rainy days. Slowly, I have seen changes and prosperity from this village”, former Barangay Chairman Alfredo Belgica, Sr also attested.

From Marshy to Productivity Barangay Sampao in Lutayan, Sultan shares some portion of Lake Buluan (Buluan, Maguindanao) where people along the lake depends on fishing as their source of livelihood. On the other side of the lake lies the municipality of President Quirino known for its vast sugarcane production. Connecting the two municipalites will open up socioeconomic opportunities and efficient exchange of services.

T

he Local Government Unit of Sultan Kudarat then proposed for the opening and construction of Lutayan-President Quirino Phase 1 (1.7kms) and Phase 2 (2.0 kms) in 2005 and 2006, respectively, under the SOCSKSARGEN Food Security Program. Both projects were completed on April 2008. With the opening of the roads, marshy lands along the lake once predominated with aquatic plants turned into a more productive source of income for the people

living in the area. During dry seasons, where water level is low and suitable for planting, the villagers take advantage of the situation by cultivating the area for rice production using lowland varieties. During wet seasons as the water raises and floods the area, villagers goes back to fishing to fill their needs. Both aqua and rice production are now traded to market with ease due to the availabiliy of transport services. Engagement with contact buyers is now also common in the area.

Asked how the road helped them, Mr. Pangawilan Buka, a resident in the area, thankfully replied “People tried to plant rice here before but has difficulties hauling their bags of palay to dry lands. There’s water anywhere until this road. It also serves as a docking point for our catch (fish) and access to us”. Nearly sixty (60) hectares of rice fields was added to the existing rice production area of Lutayan Municipality.

Road Provides Booming Broom Industry While farmers in the lowland are busy planting rice, highland farmers in Brgy. Panga-on in Magpet, North Cotabato prepares themselves to plant their hilly lands with grasses- especifically tiger grasses.

L

ocally known as Tahiti, it is the source of raw material for walis tambo (soft broom) and staged as a fine source of income for the farmers in the Barangay.

Blessed with good weather throughout the year and abundant inland water source, different commodities are produce in the municipality which includes rubber, banana, corn, coconut, fruits and vegetables. Tiger grass industry is also a long time economic activity in Magpet, however, for most farmers in Brgy. Pangao-an and neighboring Barangays, tiger grass farming is not as appealing compared to other crops. Rough hilly roads, which becomes muddy and slippery during monsoons, also stands as a Tiger grass flower constraint to transport, services and interventions from outside sources, thus, limits the economic development in the area. Not until 2007, when Pangao-an – Palo 6 - Salab - Don Panaca Farm to Market Road (1.7 kms) was rehabilitated-

44

a project implemented through the SOCSKSARGEN Food Security Program. Socio-economic development has been observed as transport vehicles can now go in and out of the area in regular basis to convey passengers and farm products. More interventions, innovations and agri-developmental efforts were also introduced in the area by the government and private agencies inducing almost a half fold increase in the area’s total production area. Tiger grass farming which was being disregarded by farmers before, now covers 10% of the total agriculture area and generates 15-20% of the Barangay’s gross profit according to Barangay Kagawad Alexander Robin. Tiger grass was often intercrop to rubber and fruit trees providing extra profit to villagers. “The road was really the key for these changes. Services from planting to harvesting to delivery were catered efficiently due to our improved roads”, attested by Pangao-an Barangay Chairman Hermana Talotalo. In 2012, the Local Government Unit of Magpet with its road paving program, concreted some steep sections of the road (a 3-meter single concrete road) facilitating safer and faster transport of products to markets.

Water is Life W

ater is indeed a highly precious resource for farmers, hence, Irrigators Associations in South Cotabato were provided with irrigation structures and facilities by National Agencies, particularly NIA, to efficiently draw and distribute water from its source to irrigate fields. However, Engr. Restituto Rendaje, Head of Planning and Monitoring Team of NIA-SCIMO admitted that more facilities and structures are still needed to be constructed and repaired to fully irrigate all reproductive and potential areas. That makes a point. Making the most out of Inland water resources like rivers and streams for irrigation purposes could not be realized without proper amenities and planning. To mention, the rehabilitation of Bo.7 CIS Dam funded under the 2007 Food Security Program guarantees excellent distribution of irrigation not only to Brgy. Topland but including other four adjacent barangays. The said facility supports almost 1,300 hectares of farmland covering 600 rice farmers. With sufficient irrigation to raise crops, Topland farmers now attain satisfactory

income from farming as attested by their increasing yields. Topland Communal Irrigators Association President Mr. Castulo D. Sulapas Jr claimed to have 42% increase in farmer’s yield with 5% rice cultivation growth in the area after the dam rehabilitation. “We can now practically define farming as a competent livelihood. With active government support, complete facilities and sufficient water resource, what can you ask for.”, Mr. Sulapas uttered. “We can now practically define farming as a competent livelihood.
