According to the paper published by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (Pids), the focus of development interventions in recent years has been on crops, particularly on the major grain staples. Shifting attention to more competitive and higher-value commodities like livestock would do much in enhancing the livelihoods of smallholder farmers, as well as MSMEs within the sector. The report pointed to statistics showing that the livestock and poultry industry has been consistently contributing positively to the economy even with less support from the government compared to other agricultural commodities. From 1998 to 2016, the production value of the combined livestock and poultry industries grew from P163 billion to P262 billion, with hog and chicken as the biggest contributors, according to the Pids paper. It was also said that the contribution of combined livestock and poultry industry to country’s output is bigger than other agricultural commodities. |
