Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030
Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030 Regional Development Council 02 Tuguegarao City Message The adoption of the Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan (CRZDFP) 2005-2030, is a step closer to our desire to harmonize and sustainably maximize the multiple uses of the Cagayan River as identified in the Regional Physical Framework Plan (RPFP) 2005-2030. A greater challenge is the implementation of the document which requires a deeper commitment in the preservation of the integrity of our environment while allowing the development of the River and its environs. The formulation of the document involved the wide participation of concerned agencies and with extensive consultation the local government units and the civil society, prior to its adoption and approval by the Regional Development Council. The inputs and proposals from the consultations have enriched this document as our convergence framework for the sustainable development of the Cagayan Riverine Zone. The document will provide the policy framework to synchronize efforts in addressing issues and problems to accelerate the sustainable development in the Riverine Zone and realize its full development potential. The Plan should also provide the overall direction for programs and projects in the Development Plans of the Provinces, Cities and Municipalities in the region. Let us therefore, purposively use this Plan to guide the utilization and management of water and land resources along the Cagayan River. I appreciate the importance of crafting a good plan and give higher degree of credence to ensuring its successful implementation. This is the greatest challenge for the Local Government Units and to other stakeholders of the Cagayan River’s development.

Over Land and Over Sea: Domestic Trade Frictions in the Philippines – Online Appendix
ONLINE APPENDIX Over Land and Over Sea: Domestic Trade Frictions in the Philippines Eugenia Go 28 February 2020 A.1. DATA 1. Maritime Trade by Origin and Destination The analysis is limited to a set of agricultural commodities corresponding to 101,159 monthly ﬂows. About 5% of these exhibit highly improbable derived unit values suggesting encoding errors. More formally, provincial retail and farm gate prices are used as upper and lower bounds of unit values to check for outliers. In such cases, more weight is given to the volume record as advised by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), and values were adjusted according to the average unit price of the exports from the port of the nearest available month before and after the outlier observation. 2. Interprovince Land Trade Interprovince land trade ﬂows were derived using Marketing Cost Structure Studies prepared by the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics for a number of products in selected years. These studies identify the main supply and destination provinces for certain commodities. The difference between production and consumption of a supply province is assumed to be the amount available for export to demand provinces. The derivation of imports of a demand province is straightforward when an importing province only has one source province. In cases where a demand province sources from multiple suppliers, such as the case of the National Capital Region (NCR), the supplying provinces are weighted according to the sample proportions in the survey. For example, NCR sources onions from Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan, and Nueva Ecija. Following the sample proportion of traders in each supply province, it is assumed that 26% of NCR imports came from Ilocos Norte, 34% from Pangasinan, and 39% from Nueva Ecija.

Cepf Final Project Completion Report
CEPF FINAL PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT I. BASIC DATA Organization Legal Name: Cagayan Valley Partners in People Development Project Title (as stated in the grant agreement): Design and Management of the Northeastern Cagayan Conservation Corridor Implementation Partners for this Project: Project Dates (as stated in the grant agreement): December 1, 2004 – June 30, 2007 Date of Report (month/year): August 2007 II. OPENING REMARKS Provide any opening remarks that may assist in the review of this report. Civil society -non-government organizations and people’s organizations, together with the academe and the church- have long been in the forefront of environmental protection in the Cagayan Valley region since the 1990s. They were and still are very active in the multi-sectoral forest protection committee and community-based forest resource management (CBFM) activities. A shift towards a conservation orientation came as a natural consequence of the Rio Summit and in view of the observation that biodiversity conservation was a neglected component of CBFM. Aside from this, there began to be implemented in region 02 biodiversity conservation projects under the CPPAP- GEF, Dutch assisted conservation and development project all in Isabela and the German assisted CBFM and Conservation project in the province of Quirino. Alongside with this was the push for the corridor approach. The CEPF assisted project is a conservation initiative that has come just at the right time when there was an upswing of interest in Cagayan in biodiversity conservation and environment protection. It came as a conservation felt need for the province of Cagayan in view of the successful pro-active actions in the neighboring province of Isabela which led to the establishment of the Northern Sierra Madre Natural Park.

Philippines Broad Listening Report
LOCAL SYSTEMS PRACTICE (LSP) ACTIVITY LOCAL WORKS PHILIPPINES | BROAD LISTENING TOUR ANALYSIS August 7, 2018 This publication was produced at the request of the United States Agency for International Development. It was prepared independently by the Local Systems Practice consortium. USAID/Philippines Local Works Broad Listening Analysis Prepared by: Rahul Oka, AVSI Jenna White, LINC Rieti Gengo, AVSI Patrick Sommerville, LINC Front cover: Listening Tour in Sto. Tomas. Acknowledgements: The author(s) would like to acknowledge all of our LSP consortium partners for their input throughout the process, participants who took the time to participate in the Broad Listening Tour activities. These contributions are crucial for advancing our mutual efforts towards improved local development in the Philippines. About Local Systems Practice: Local Systems Practice is a USAID-funded activity that directly assists multiple Missions, partners, and constituents to design and adaptively manage systems-based programs in complex environments. The concept has been designed to aid Missions and partners to overcome four specific challenges to effective Local Systems Practice through: a) Listening; b) Engagement; c) Discovery; and d) Adaptation. The Theory of Change underpinning the activity asserts that the application of systems tools to complex local challenges at multiple intervals throughout the program cycle will enhance the sustainability of programming, resulting in better-informed, measurable interventions that complement and reinforce the systems they seek to strengthen. The LSP team is composed of both development practitioners and research institutions to most effectively explore and implement systems thinking approaches with Missions, local partners and other local stakeholders. The activity is led by LINC LLC with five sub-implementers: ANSER, the University of Notre Dame, AVSI, the University of Missouri, and Practical Action.

Oryza Sativa) Cultivation in the Ifugao Rice Terraces, Philippine Cordilleras
Plant Microfossil Results from Old Kiyyangan Village: Looking for the Introduction and Expansion of Wet-field Rice (Oryza sativa) Cultivation in the Ifugao Rice Terraces, Philippine Cordilleras Mark HORROCKS, Stephen ACABADO, and John PETERSON ABSTRACT Pollen, phytolith, and starch analyses were carried out on 12 samples from two trenches in Old Kiyyangan Village, Ifugao Province, providing evidence for human activity from ca. 810–750 cal. B.P. Seed phytoliths and endosperm starch of cf. rice (Oryza sativa), coincident with aquatic Potamogeton pollen and sponge spicule remains, provide preliminary evidence for wet-field cultivation of rice at the site. The first rice remains appear ca. 675 cal. B.P. in terrace sediments. There is a marked increase in these remains after ca. 530–470 cal. B.P., supporting previous studies suggesting late expansion of the cultivation of wet-field rice in this area. The study represents initial, sediment-derived, ancient starch evidence for O. sativa, and initial, sediment-derived, ancient phytolith evidence for this species in the Philippines. KEYWORDS: Philippines, Ifugao Rice Terraces, rice (Oryza sativa), pollen, phytoliths, starch. INTRODUCTION THE IFUGAO RICE TERRACES IN THE CENTRAL CORDILLERAS,LUZON, were inscribed in the UNESCOWorldHeritage List in 1995, the first ever property to be included in the cultural landscape category of the list (Fig. 1). The nomination and subsequent listing included discussion on the age of the terraces. The terraces were constructed on steep terrains as high as 2000 m above sea level, covering extensive areas. The extensive distribution of the terraces and estimates of the length of time required to build these massive landscape modifications led some researchers to propose a long history of up to 2000–3000 years, which was supported by early archaeological 14C evidence (Barton 1919; Beyer 1955; Maher 1973, 1984).

Journal of Economics, Management & Agricultural Development Vol. 4, No. 2 57 Organizational Transformation of a Public-Private Partnership: The Case of the Nueva Vizcaya Agricultural Terminal, Philippines 1 2 3 Nimfa Beatris D. Montes , Agnes C. Rola , Isabelita M. Pabuayon , Dinah Pura T. Depositario4, and Vella A. Atienza5 Abstract The Nueva Vizcaya Agricultural Terminal (NVAT), Philippines is a mixed capital public-private joint venture established in Nueva Vizcaya in 2004 to address problems such as lack of markets and keen market competition. This study aims to describe NVAT’s organizational transformation, determine key factors that drove its transformation, and assess its current performance. The research made use of key informant interviews (KIIs), focused group discussions (FGDs), direct observations, and secondary data from records and manuals. Results show that transformation was achieved through crucial changes in governance, structure, core processes, culture, and strategies. The key drivers of transformation were the growing demand for fresh fruits and vegetables, dedicated leadership, and collective goal for good governance, among others. Through a farmers’ empowerment strategy and improved trading activities, operations were improved significantly. There were concrete gains in terms of relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, profitability, diversity, and sustainability. An entrepreneurial culture which promotes creativity and innovation should, however, be fostered in the organization. It was also recommended that NVAT should

To perform the ethnomycological survey of macrofungi utilized by the Kalanguya indigenous community in Sitio Binbin, Brgy. General Luna, Carranglan, Nueva Ecija, the community members and their chieftain were asked to answer survey questionnaires pertaining to their beliefs and knowledge on mushroom utilization, collection and cultivation. Then, collection of the utilized macrofungi were performed during the rainy season. Results showed that most of indigenous people knew about mushrooms, which they locally called as bagel and buo, and utilized for food. There were 36 species claimed by the community as edible, however, only 10 species were obtained during the collection.
