Etnological Pest Management Practices of Indigenous People (Aeta/Negrito/Ita) in Catanauan, Quezon IOER INTERNATIONAL MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH JOURNAL, VOL. 1, NO. 1, MARCH, 2019 ETNOLOGICAL PEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLE (AETA/NEGRITO/ITA) IN CATANAUAN, QUEZON MERCY O. MANALO http://orcid.org/ 0000-0003-1658-4898 [email protected]/[email protected] Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Mulanay, Quezon Branch ABSTRACT The Aeta, Agta or Ayta are an indigenous people who live in scattered, isolated mountainous parts of Barangay San Jose (Anyao), Catanauan, Quezon. An ethnological study was conducted to document the indigenous people (Aeta) integrated pest management practices employing the descriptive survey method. Based on the result, 80% were still practicing the traditional way of managing the pest without harming the human and environment, leaving the infected crops, manually picking the pest, burning or smoking, cultural practices like crop rotation, mixed cropping, and management of the surroundings. Crop loss due to pests is one of the major problems resulting to reduce production and income. The chemical control of pests is predominant, but a traditional pest control practice still continues. The traditional pest control practices play a significant role in the management of agricultural land and it is an inevitable practice for sustainable agriculture. The proper control of pests minimizes economic losses and damage to the environment. Some of the respondents have insufficient skills and knowledge on the ethnological way of controlling pest and diseases using insect repellant like marigold (Amarillo), lemongrass (tanlad), oregano and by spraying wild chili mixed with water. Based on the result, it is recommended to conduct seminars, training, and workshops on Organic Agriculture as well as an awareness campaign on the effect of chemical fertilizer to human and environment.

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

The methodology employed in the project combined the 2000 Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES), 2000 Labor Force Survey (LFS) and 2000 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) to estimate poverty incidence, poverty gap, and poverty severity for the provincial and municipal levels. We acknowledge with thanks the valuable assistance provided by the Project Consultants, Dr. Stephen Haslett and Dr. Geoffrey Jones of the Statistics Research and Consulting Centre, Massey University, New Zealand. Ms. Caridad Araujo, for the assistance in the preliminary preparations for the project; and Dr. Peter Lanjouw of the World Bank for the continued support. The Project Consultants prepared Chapters 1 to 8 of the report with Mr. Joseph M. Addawe, Rey Angelo Millendez, and Amando Patio, Jr. of the NSCB Poverty Team, assisting in the data preparation and modeling. Chapters 9 to 11 were prepared mainly by the NSCB Project Staff after conducting validation workshops in selected provinces of the country and the project’s national dissemination forum. It is hoped that the results of this project will help local communities and policy makers in the formulation of appropriate programs and improvements in the targeting schemes aimed at reducing poverty.

    Republic of the Philippines Department of Labor and Employment REGIONAL TRIPARTITE WAGES AND PRODUCTIVITY BOARD Regional Board No. IV WAGE ORDER NO. IV - 06 SETTING THE NEW MINIMUM WAGE IN THE REGION WHEREAS, the basic purpose of the minimum wage as a safety net is to advance the living standards of low income workers who are unable to keep up or adjust their income on their own given the erosion of said income due to inflation; WHEREAS, while the safety net requirement as a “core” standard is needed to influence market outcomes and protect vulnerable workers, it should at the same time succeed in taking advantage of new market opportunities and not impede the inflow of capital nor the competitive management of the changing environment; WHEREAS, the long-term regional aspiration is to put in place a framework for a wage policy that complements informal and rural labor markets, support an effective system of industrial relations, provide safeguard for the vulnerable, avoid biases that favor the relatively well-off worker and obviate obstacles to facilitate the transition to a more market-based and internationally integrated pattern of development; WHEREAS, given the growing trend of urban dispersal, it is clear that Metro Manila now extends beyond its traditional boundaries to form an Extended Metropolitan Region which includes portions of the Region’s Growth Corridor Area specifically the provinces of Cavite, Laguna and Rizal; WHEREAS, the rate of development and cost of living requirements in some areas in the Region require the redefinition of the regions’ spatial classification to be based on the area’s income class, level of urbanization and ratio of number of establishments to population; WHEREAS, the spatial configuration of the Region is classified in accordance with the following and detailed in Annex “A1” and Annex “A2” of this Wage Order: a.
