  • Current Status and Prospects of Protected Areas in the Light of the Philippine Biodiversity Conservation Priorities
    Proceedings of IUCN/WCPA-EA-4 Taipei Conference March 18-23, 2002, Taipei, Taiwan CURRENT STATUS AND PROSPECTS OF PROTECTED AREAS IN THE LIGHT OF THE PHILIPPINE BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION PRIORITIES Perry S. Ong, Ph. D. Fellow, Center for Applied Biodiversity Science, CI Science Director, Conservation International Philippines Associate Professor, Institute of Biology, UP Diliman I. INTRODUCTION The Philippines, the world’s second largest archipelago after Indonesia, covers a land area of about 300,000 km2 [1]. It is one of the 17 megadiversity countries, which between themselves contain 70 to 80 percent of global biodiversity [2]. Philippine rainforest is home to more than 1130 terrestrial wildlife species (Table 1) and between 10,000-13,000 species of plants [3] so far recorded, of which more than half are found nowhere else in the world. As such, the Philippines has also been described as Galapagos times ten [4]. It is also one of 25 global biodiversity hotspots [5, 6] with more than 97 percent of its original forest cover lost [7, 8]. In fact more original forests were lost in the last 50 years of the 20th century than what was lost in the previous 450 years combined [9]. Yet more new species are still being discovered on these islands than any other areas on earth in recent times [e.g., see 10, 11] Table 1. Diversity, endemism and conservation status of Philippine wildlife [11, 12, 13 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20] No. of No. of Endemic % No. of No. of Threatened Species Species endemics Endemic Species Threatened Species Amphibians 101+ 79+ 78% 24 24 Reptiles 258+ 170+ 66% 8 4 Birds 5761 195+1 34% 74 59 Mammals 204+1, 2 111+1 54% 51 41 Total 1139+ 555+1 49% 157 128 95 Legend: + includes new species (38 species of amphibians, 35 species of reptiles; 15 species of mammals); 1 includes rediscovered species 2 25 species of dolphins, whales and dugong The country’s marine waters cover 2.21 M km2 with a coastline of 22,450 km and an estimated 27,000 km2 of coral reefs [21].

This report updates and in some respects revises the conclusions of tniatearlier study, with a special focus on the demend and supply of rice and other basic grains. In particular, it is less optimistic that rice self-sufficiency can be sustained through increases in rice yields or high return irrigationprojects, and suggests that substantial imports will be required. The report touches upon a wide range of food policy and irrigation issues and explores how these are related to help establish future priorities for meeting rice requirements in a balanced manner. It reviews other food sectors (wheat, corn, livestock etc.,) to the extent that they impact on prospects for rice, but is not intended as a comprehensive review of all food production and policy. Nor does the report provide a detailed review of agricultural supporting services (research,exter.sion, credit etc.) since its primary objective in relation to irrigation is to evaluate the justification for future invrestmentin the light of institutional support for improving irrigationperformance.

  • Fishery in Iloilo Strait, Philippines: Food and Livelihood for Coastal Communities in the Midst of Waste of Non-Target Fishery Resources T.U
    The Filter Net (Tangab) Fishery in Iloilo Strait, Philippines: Food and Livelihood for Coastal Communities in the Midst of Waste of Non-target Fishery Resources T.U. Bagarinao The Philippines is home to a mixed of blessings: an enormous marine biodiversity, a tremendous variety of fishery enterprises, and about 50 million coastal residents who mostly fish and eat fish. So many animals and so many nets in the water result in huge total catches of target fishery species, but also unfortunately of ‘trash fish’ — huge numbers of diverse marine larvae, juveniles, small adults, and unwanted species. ‘Trash fish’ is a category of fisheries by- catch, which as a whole has been estimated to average about 20% worldwide, but difficult to quantify in Philippine fisheries given the large number and variety of fishers, fishing grounds, gears, species, and markets. Moreover, it is difficult to quantify the costs and benefits of a given fishery, and in particular to balance the economic benefits to the coastal Fig. 1.
