Dairy Delights
DAIRY DELIGHTS If you happen to be in the vicinity of Rizal province, you will find a packet of farmers engaged in carabao raising. The place is in Jalajala, Rizal. To oldies, it bespeaks of the many foregone memories when it was still under the now defunct KKK Program of the Ministry of Human Settlements. To the vetereran technicians, they called it “Saudi Arayat’ in reference to Saudi Arabia, local form since it seems far flung if you get to have this as your assignment. It is near Manila but, if you are lucky to be assigned there, you’d feel like in some remote places. Lights are not so common despite its proximity to geothermal plants. The land area is vast, but come to think of it, it’s mostly rocks and the river beds are dried up. Circling the Laguna de Bay on the south side, it’s lacking in activity. Not so many people could be seen except for some barrio folks with some goats lagging behind them. The teenagers are playing basketful, but they are quite a handful. By 5 in the afternoon, it seemed the sky has turned to grey with amber streaks of the sun already folding with the clouds in cover. Nothing could be as boring if you’d look at it. However, if you traverse some more kilometers after Pillia Rizal, you will see the town of Jalajala. In it, is a peculiar barangay of Llano. Some people have cows, goats and carbaos. They happen to comprise the Llano Farmers Multi-Purpose Cooperative, Inc. -
Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines
Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines November 2005 Republika ng Pilipinas PAMBANSANG LUPON SA UGNAYANG PANG-ESTADISTIKA (NATIONAL STATISTICAL COORDINATION BOARD) http://www.nscb.gov.ph in cooperation with The WORLD BANK Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines FOREWORD This report is part of the output of the Poverty Mapping Project implemented by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) with funding assistance from the World Bank ASEM Trust Fund. 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. -

(CBMS) in the Province of Camarines Norte ∗
Uses of Community-Based Management System (CBMS) In the Province of Camarines Norte ∗ INTRODUCTION I am honored to be with you in this 5th Community – Based Monitoring System (CBMS) National Conference. May task today is to present the Uses of CBMS in the Province of Camarines Norte. First, allow me to make a brief profile of the province. Found on the northwestern coast of the Bicol Peninsula which forms the southeastern section of Luzon, Camarines Norte is bounded on the north by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by the Pacific Ocean and San Miguel Bay, on the west by Lamon Bay and in the south by the adjoining provinces of Camarines Sur and Quezon. It is one of the six (6) provinces that constitute the Bicol Region and is composed of 12 municipalities and 282 barangays. Its capital, Daet, is 365 kms. southeast of the City of Manila, a 7-hour travel by land or a 45-minute trip by plane. It has a projected population for CY 2008 of 533,173 with a growth rate of 1.5% per annum. 60.46% of the population can be found in rural areas while the remaining 39.54% in urban areas. In terms of physical characteristics, it has a total land area of about 232,007 hectares roughly 13.00% of the region’s total area and 0.077% of the country’s total land area. The province’s topography is generally rugged, characterized by rolling hills and mountains in the interior, and fertile plains and valleys along the coast. -
Pattern of Investment Allocation to Chemical Inputs and Technical Efficiency: a Stochastic Frontier Analysis of Farm Households in Laguna, Philippines
Pattern of investment allocation to chemical inputs and technical efficiency: A stochastic frontier analysis of farm households in Laguna, Philippines Orlee Velarde and Valerien Pede International Rice Research Institute Laguna, Philippines 4030 Selected paper prepared for presentation at the 57th AARES Annual Conference, Sydney, New South Wales, 5th-8th February, 2013 Pattern of investment allocation to chemical inputs and technical efficiency: A stochastic frontier analysis of farm households in Laguna, Philippines † Orlee Velarde †and Valerien Pede International Rice Research Institute Abstract This study focuses on the pattern between investment in chemical inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides and technical efficiency of farm households in Laguna, Philippines. Using a one‐stage maximum likelihood estimation procedure, the stochastic production frontier model was estimated simultaneously with the determinants of efficiency. Results show that farmers with a low technical efficiency score have a high investment share in chemical inputs. Farmers who invested more in chemical inputs relative to other variable inputs attained the same or even lower output and were less efficient than those farmers who invested less. The result shows that farmers who invested wisely in chemical inputs can encourage farmers to apply chemical inputs more optimally.

While there is a wealth of literature on the history of the church in the Philippines, much of this tends to deal with its more formal as- pects, such as its institutions, the religious orders, inter-church squabbles, and missionary exploits. Very little has been written on the daily life of the churches. To this end I would like to share some findings collected while doing research on the colonial churches of Cavite. SOURCES OF DATA The data were collected from four types of primary sources. The first are Libros de Cargo y Data or account books kept in each parish. Income or cargo and expenses or data were noted down for each month, with a resultant cotejo or comparison indicating whe- ther the church was in debt or not.
