  • A Historical Evaluation of the Emergence of Nueva Ecija As the Rice Granary of the Philippines
    Presented at the DLSU Research Congress 2015 De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines March 2-4, 2015 A Historical Evaluation of The Emergence of Nueva Ecija as the Rice Granary of the Philippines Fernando A. Santiago, Jr., Ph.D. Department of History De La Salle University [email protected] Abstract: The recognition of Nueva Ecija’s potential as a seedbed for rice in the latter half of the nineteenth century led to the massive conversion of public land and the establishment of agricultural estates in the province. The emergence of these estates signalled the arrival of wide scale commercial agriculture that revolved around wet- rice cultivation. By the 1920s, Nueva Ecija had become the “Rice Granary of the Philippines,” which has been the identity of the province ever since. This study is an assessment of the emergence of Nueva Ecija as the leading rice producer of the country. It also tackles various facets of the rice industry, the profitability of the crop and some issues that arose from rice being a controlled commodity. While circumstances might suggest that the rice producers would have enjoyed tremendous prosperity, it was not the case for the rice trade was in the hands of middlemen and regulated by the government. The government policy which favored the urban consumers over rice producers brought meager profits, which led to disappointment to all classes and ultimately caused social tension in the province. The study therefore also explains the conditions that made Nueva Ecija the hotbed of unrest prior to the Second World War. Historical methodology was applied in the conduct of the study.

  • Some Species of Macrofungi at Puncan, Carranglan, Nueva Ecija in the Philippines
    Journal of Agricultural Technology 2008, V.4(2): 105-115 Some species of macrofungi at Puncan, Carranglan, Nueva Ecija in the Philippines P. Sibounnavong1*,Cynthia.C.D.1, Kalaw, S.P1, R.G. Reyes1 and K. Soytong2 1Department of Biology, Central Luzon State University, Munoz, Philippines. 2Department of Plant Pest Management, KMITL, Bangkok, Thailand. Sibounnavong, P., Cynthia, C.D., Kalaw, S.P., Reyes, R.G. and Soytong, K. (2008). Some species of macrofungi at Puncan, Carranglan, Nueva Ecija in the Philippines. Journal of Agricultural Technology 4(2): 105-115. Mushrooms and macrofungi were collected at Puncan, Carranglan, Nueva Ecija, Philippines in during dry season. There were identified into 7 species. With this, one species belong to Order Tulasnellales or Tremellales (Jelly Fungi), Family Auriculariaceae which is Auricularia fuscosuccinea. Another 4 species belong to Order Polyporales; Family Polyporaceae which are Gloeoporus dichrous (Fr.) Bres, Coltricia perennis (Fr.) Murr, Trametes versicolor (L.: Fries) Pilt and Phellinus pini (Fr.) Ames. Out of these, 2 species belong to Order Agaricales (Mushroom); Family Tricholomataceae which is Hobenbuebelia petaloides (Bull ex Fr.) Schulz and Family Cantharellaceae which is Cantharellus minor Pk. It is noticed that our survey were done in dry season, high temperature and low humidity which found that the climate and whether are not favorable for mushroom and other fungi growing. Since then, it is indicated that the species found in this season are rarely fresh but their specimens mostly dried. Key words: Auricularia, Gloeoporus, Coltricia, Trametes, Phellinus, Hobenbuebelia, Cantharellus Introduction Mushrooms and macrofungi need moisture to develop. There is an optimum period of mushroom season when the most of mushrooms and macro fungi come to appear.

  • Coping Against El Nino for Stabilizing Rainfed Agriculture
    Coping Strategies against El Nino: the Case of Selected Communities in Talugtug, Nueva Ecija, the Philippines Florentino C. Monsalud, Jaime G. Montesur and Rene L. Limosinero* Introduction The Philippines experiences drought at least once every five years and it causes tremendous havoc to the economy. During the 1997-1998 El Nino, losses to rice and corn alone amounted to more than US$ 240,000,000 (Librero et al., 1999). Under these circumstances the government reacted with a number of programs that are expected to address this problem. Among these include the Small Water Impounding Projects (SWIP). Along with the introduced mitigation measures against the effects of El Nino are the strategies employed by farmers to cope with the impact of El Nino. Understanding the factors contributory to the effectiveness of these measures will be a useful guide to planners and policy makers. Vulnerability of farmers to El Nino is dependent on the biophysical characteristics of their farm and on the socio-economic conditions of the community. The institutional support available to them is also critical in the level of preparedness in confronting the impact of El Nino. Objectives 1) To determine the impacts of El Nino-related abnormal weather changes on agricultural production and farmers’ income; 2) To document the existing farming systems, resources, infrastructure, institutions, and other socio-economic characteristics of selected El Nino vulnerable areas; 3) To determine the strategies employed by farmers and communities to cope with El Nino-induced agricultural risks; and 4) To draw up specific recommendations for the stabilization of upland agricultural production. * Farming Systems and Soil Resources Institute, University of the Philippines Los Baños, College, Laguna, the Philippines.

WHEREAS, as a result of this fragmentation, there is lack of a clear, coherent policy and a rational regulative framework on the use and allocation of our country's scant water resources and reservoirs which have further exacerbated the debate among governmental and private institutions

  • Flood Risk Assessment Under the Climate Change in the Case of Pampanga River Basin, Philippines
    FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT UNDER THE CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE CASE OF PAMPANGA RIVER BASIN, PHILIPPINES Santy B. Ferrer* Supervisor: Mamoru M. Miyamoto** MEE133631 Advisors: Maksym Gusyev*** Miho Ohara**** ABSTRACT The main objective of this study is to assess the flood risk in the Pampanga river basin that consists of the flood hazard, exposure, and risk in terms of potential flood fatalities and economic losses under the climate change. The Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation (RRI) model was calibrated using 2011 flood and validated with the 2009, 2012 and 2013 floods. The calibrated RRI model was applied to produce flood inundation maps based on 10-, 25, 50-, and 100-year return period of 24-hr rainfall. The rainfall data is the output of the downscaled and bias corrected MRI -AGCM3.2s for the current climate conditions (CCC) and two cases of future climate conditions with an outlier in the dataset (FCC-case1) and without an outlier (FCC-case2). For this study, the exposure assessment focuses on the affected population and the irrigated area. Based on the results, there is an increasing trend of flood hazard in the future climate conditions, therefore, the greater exposure of the people and the irrigated area keeping the population and irrigated area constant. The results of this study may be used as a basis for the climate change studies and an implementation of the flood risk management in the basin. Keywords: Risk assessment, Pampanga river basin, Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation model, climate change, MRI-AGCM3.2S 1. INTRODUCTION The Pampanga river basin is the fourth largest basin in the Philippines located in the Central Luzon Region with an approximate area of 10,545 km² located in the Central Luzon Region.

This is considering that the year was a significant El Niño year. Typhoon Lando had record high flood levels at upstream sections of the main Pampanga River while the latter, though it nearly compared with Lando in flood levels at the mid and lower sections of the basin, registered higher event station rain totals. The Pampanga River Basin Flood Forecasting & Warning Center had a fairly active year 2015. Programs and activity highlights for the year included as follows: Issued 21 flood advisories (FAs) and 36 flood bulletins (FBs) in 8 basin-related events; Uploaded rainfall (RR) / water level (WL) data and updated hydrological forecast in the PRFFWC website (www.prffwc.webs.com / www.prffwc.synthasite.com) for 365 days; Conducted on-site validation of river stages during flood events Typhoon Lando and effects of Typhoon Nona and, Conducted post-flood surveys for the above said flood events and produced an event report (Related link:
