Continuity and Change
Agri-Pinoy
The strategic framework for all
functions and programs of the
Department of Agriculture
Agri-Pinoy
Principles and practices for
the optimum development
of Philippine resources,
natural and human,
to meet Philippine goals
in agriculture and fisheries
Agri-Pinoy
Four Guiding Principles
Food security and self-sufficiency
Sustainable agriculture and fisheries
Natural resource management
Local development
Agri-Pinoy
Four Guiding Principles
Food security and self-sufficiency
Accessible, affordable, safe and nutritious
food (especially staple food) for all Filipinos.
Sapat, ligtas at abot-kayang pagkain para
sa lahat ng Pilipino.
Minimize our dependence on food imports.
Agri-Pinoy
Four Guiding Principles
Sustainable agriculture and fisheries
Consider the limited carrying capacity
of our natural resources while increasing
the capabilities of our human resources.
Sustainability is both ecological and
economic.
Agri-Pinoy
Four Guiding Principles
Natural resource management
Manage our natural resource
endowments and “optimize” their
development, to enhance their
competitive advantage while insuring
that they are not exhausted.
Agri-Pinoy
Four Guiding Principles
Local development
Agriculture and fisheries are site specific.
Agri-fisheries development should be
integrated into local development plans,
using an eco-system framework of
governance and development.
Agri-Pinoy
Check List
Broad-based
Farm to Table
Sustainable
Resilient
Partnership
Agri-Pinoy
Is broad-based
Why? The increasing demand from an increasing
population requires an increase in productivity and
profitability of the broadest number of producers.
We also need a broader and more varied base
to insure sustainability and resilience in the face of
climate change and changes in the global market
Agri-Pinoy
Is broad-based
Implications: The DA’s services and resources
must be equitably and proportionately allocated
to small, medium, and large players
The DA’s services and resources must address
the specific needs of the various stakeholders
Agri-Pinoy
Addresses the whole system
from Farm to Table
The “Farm” represents interventions in production,
from soil and water management, extension, seeds
and fertilizers, post-harvest processing, credit and
marketing etc.
The “Table” represents interventions to insure food
security, safety, and quality for the consumers
Agri-Pinoy
is based on
sustainable farming systems
Promote and develop technological interventions
that increase productivity while insuring sustainability
Recognize the limits of the carrying capacity of our
natural resources, while increasing the capability of
our human resources
Minimize dependence on imports to meet national
food requirements
Agri-Pinoy
is based on
sustainable farming systems
Sustainability includes preparing the successor
generation
Promote appreciation of agriculture especially
among young people e.g. Gulayan sa Paaralan
in partnership with DepEd, learning lessons
from 4-H clubs and other rural youth programs
Agri-Pinoy
Integrates the need for resilience
Resilience and sustainability are both
ecological and economic, addressing both
bio-physical and market changes
Globalization of markets challenges us to
become globally competitive across the
whole supply chain
80% of our production sites are vulnerable
to climate change impacts
Agri-Pinoy
Integrates the need for resilience
Empowerment of farmers through technical and
skills upgrading, including timely information
about risks
Diversification of crops, farm systems, and
value-adding technologies
Agri-Pinoy
Works through partnerships
Partnerships with national government agencies,
especially the Convergence partners - DAR and
DENR. Participation is open to other national
agencies.
Partnerships with LGUs who have the responsibility
to insure food security and self-sufficiency.
Partnership with DILG to facilitate the integration of
agricultural and fisheries development in the local
development plans
Agri-Pinoy
Works through partnerships
Partnerships with farmers and fishers organizations,
NGOs, and other stakeholders including business
Promoting the formation of program-based
Agri-Pinoy partnerships at the local, regional,
and national level
Agri-Pinoy
Challenges to the DA
Convergence among DA units and agencies
Professionalism within the DA family
Governance: Transparency, Accountability,
Participation
Agri-Pinoy
Bridging the gap
Touching the heart
Our stakeholders, especially the grassroots,
must experience our sincerity and concern,
so that they will trust us and respond to our call
to actively participate in Agri-Pinoy.
Agri-Pinoy
Focus our minds
to deliver results
Pagkaing sapat
Magsasakang angat
Tagumpay nating lahat
