    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by International Journal on Advanced Science, Engineering and Information Technology Vol.5 (2015) No. 6 ISSN: 2088-5334 Indigenous Knowledge and Sustainable Pest Management in Rice Farming Communities of Southeastern Luzon, Philippines Amelia R. Nicolas#1 and Argie S. Cabarogias#2 # Central Bicol State University of Agriculture, San Jose, Pili, Camarines Sur 4418, Bicol, Philippines E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract — The paper presents the traditional pest management systems in the rice-growing areas of the southeastern part of Luzon, Philippines, particularly in the province of Camarines Sur. These systems have been proven to be productive, sustainable, ecologically sound, and attuned to the social, economic, and cultural features of the food-poor small farmers in the said province. The various indigenous pest control strategies were recorded and classified into cultural, physical, biological, mechanical, and chemical. A mixture of qualitative techniques such as interview guides and Focus Group Discussions were used in the survey. Results indicate that, despite the increasing modernization and commercialization of agriculture, the great majority of respondents who are peasants or marginal farmers still strongly embrace and patronize the use of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) that they have inherited from their ancestors many decades ago. IK on pest management have helped them control and sustainably manage pest problems and meet their subsistence needs without depending on costly energy-based inputs. IK should therefore be recorded and used to devise innovative research for agricultural researchers, extension workers, development practitioners, and environmentalists for sustainable pest management before this wealth of practical knowledge is lost forever since most of the indigenous management techniques for rice pest control are rapidly disappearing as affected by major social, economic, and political pressures.

  • INTRODUCTION Bicol Region, Due to Its Location, Is Highly Vulnerable to Typhoons, Floods, Drought and Volcanic Eruptions
    INTRODUCTION Bicol Region, due to its location, is highly vulnerable to typhoons, floods, drought and volcanic eruptions. These natural occurrences frequently lead to severe damage of properties, infrastructure, and loss of livelihoods in agriculture. Forty percent of Bicol Region’s rice area is affected by flooding, drought and saline intrusion. The Assessments of Climate Change Impacts and Mapping of Vulnerability to Food Insecurity under Climate Change to Strengthen Household Food Security with Livelihoods’ Adaptation Approaches (AMICAF) is a project of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in partnership with the Department of Agriculture. It is a project funded by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fishery and Forestry of Japan (MAFF). AMICAF Project has four components namely: Step 1: Impacts of climate change on agriculture; Step 2: Food Insecurity Vulnerability Analysis; Step 3: Livelihood Adaptation to Climate Change; and Step 4: Institutional analysis and awareness. FAO along with the Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office 5 (DA- RFO5) conducted the Step 3 component of the project which focuses on the livelihood adaptation to climate change that involves a community-based approach to identify, test and evaluate adaptation options that increase the ability of vulnerable groups to deal with the impact of climate change on food security. Step 3 aims to establish an institutional framework for the identification, validation, field testing and evaluation of good practices. This is for the adaptation of various stakeholders and enhancement of the capacities of vulnerable communities. FAO and DA-RFO5 have been working together in several projects that implement the adaptation of good practice options, one of which is TCP/PHI/3203.
