IV. Issues/Concerns and Recommendations
Challenges in Agriculture and Fisheries Sectors
The rising prices on energy, oil, fertilizer, and high input costs. Many Bangsamoro farmers
fisherfolk are simply unable to take their production further due to the high expense of many
critical inputs. These include lack of Post-Harvest Facilities, Climate Change, Market Forces,
Land Rent, and Demographics. These challenges put the region difficulty to fill local production
gap.
The big gap in the transportation and connectivity also a big challenge to the region as it is the
primary link of farm produce to the market. The slow pace of the rehabilitation, construction, and
opening of new farm-to-market roads is the biggest friction of agri-fishery development in the
region.
Low competitiveness, food security, and high poverty incidence are the main challenges of the
agriculture and fishery sectors. Climate change is a big threat that can exacerbate poor
performance of the sector.
A host of issues beset postharvest handling and marketing. Limited postharvest and storage
facilities, inadequate transport infrastructure and services, limited knowledge on proper product
handling or grading, poor packaging materials, lack of incentives to improve quality of produce
and tedious processes for product registration all these lead to high postharvest losses, inflated
marketing costs, low farm gate prices and poor competitiveness.
a) External threats to crop productivity, fisheries and aquaculture production
Despite the region’s vast water resources, fertile lands, and suitable climatic condition ideal for
various farming activities, the region has yet to realize the full potential of its agriculture sector
as crop productivity continues to be vulnerable to climate change and natural disasters.
Another factor affecting agricultural production is climate change and natural disaster. The
changing climate conditions also affected fish catch among fisherfolks across the provinces in
Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM).
Pest and insect proliferation affect the growth of agricultural crops. To cite an example,
infestation of wild hogs hindered farmers farming activities in Tawi-tawi. In the case of Lake
Lanao, proliferation of foreign species as the main reason for the lake’s degradation.
b) Limited market development and market networking
One of the recurring issues that describe the challenges of the agriculture sector is selling their
products. Compared with other regions in Mindanao Island, marketing and selling their product
is quite a challenge for the farmers especially for smallholders.
Challenges related to this issue includes price of agricultural products, limited market for crops,
non- competitive agricultural industry, and agricultural value chain.
P a g e 79 | 84
The absence of post-processing facilities for the fisheries and aquaculture products in the island
provinces put their province at a disadvantaged position as they can only sell such products as
raw.
Smallholder farmers end up selling their produce to the usual businessmen/middlemen whom
they borrowed money for capital inputs due to limited market for their crops.
c) Observable decline human capital
More farmers prefer their children to pursue other profession other than farming to relieve them
from poverty.
In addition, the floodings because of unexpected typhoons presumably the effect of rising
temperature due to climate change. Mostly affected are the rice and corn productions in the
region particularly in the provinces of Maguindanao and Lanao del Sur respectively.
Maguindanao serves as the rice granary and major production area of the region belongs to
Mindanao catch basin that in the advent of continuous rains, the low-lying municipalities which
are among the rice production areas are experiencing perennial flooding and damages the crops
and hard to recover if not given immediate attention, support, and urgent intervention.
Recommendations
P a g e 81 | 84
These can be done through increasing productivity through adoption of technologies and planting
corn only in growing areas with comparable advantage; improving market connectivity and
standard compliance through interventions such as contract growing; making corn production
systems resilient to climate change and promoting white corn grits as complimentary food staple.
These are other strategies; conduct of technology demonstration; extensive promotion of modern
production technologies; improving extension delivery system; expanding farm mechanization;
intensify farm clustering; strengthening breeding program and germplasm collection; enhancing
the yield in resource-limiting upland and sloping land and expanding production areas through
intercropping and adoption of production practices.
Other strategies also include at improving market connectivity and standard compliance;
strengthen farm industry linkages; expanding GAP certified farms and provision of modern
postharvest, drying and storage facilities
On the other hand, the region aimed at making corn production systems resilient to climate
change through designing and building storage facilities for seed reserve; providing appropriate
irrigation system; producing forecasting using site-specific climate and soil data and adopting
disaster risk maps by identifying disaster prone areas
