BERSALES, Ph.D. National Statistician and Civil Registrar General Copyright © 2012 by Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) PSA CVEA Building East Avenue, Diliman Quezon City, Philippines FOREWORD Over the years, the Census of Agriculture and Fisheries (CAF) has been the major source of comprehensive information on agriculture and fishery sectors in the country. The collected census data provide statistical information which can assist decision making for all sectors of society such as governments, businesses, academics, researchers, students, community organizations and individuals. The 2012 CAF was undertaken by the then National Statistics Office (NSO) in accordance with Executive Order (EO) 121, designating the said office as the "major statistical agency responsible for generating general purpose statistics" and Commonwealth Act 591 which authorized the NSO, "to prepare for and undertake all censuses of population, agriculture, industry and commerce". Moreover, EO 352, otherwise known as the Designation of Statistical Activities that will Generate Critical Data for Decision-Making of the Government and the Private Sector, provided for the conduct of census of agriculture every 10 years. Recently, Republic Act (RA) 10625 (Reorganizing and Strengthening the Philippine Statistical System and for Other Purposes) Section 6 stipulates that one function of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) is "to prepare and conduct periodic censuses on population, housing, agriculture, fisheries, business, industry and other sectors of the economy". The 2012 CAF was the sixth in a series of decennial agriculture censuses and the fifth in the decennial censuses of fisheries in the country.
