1 National Crop Protection Agenda

2 Background Agencies work independently Programs overlap Other needs unattended

3 General Objective To harmonize crop protection related activities of various stakeholders

4 Approach DEDUCTIVE analysis of new challenges and opportunities (Resource Person) INDUCTIVE consultation with key leaders & stakeholders (SWG & Summit) HISTORICAL review of various agencies portfolios (Indirect) NATIONAL AGENDA

5 Methodology 1. Small Group Workshop Vision; Supply of Programs 2. National Consultation Demand of Stakeholders National Agenda

6 Topics Covered in the Proceedings 1. Where we are today & how we got here 2. Where we want to go VISION 3. How to get there a. STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK (Mission, Goals & Programs); b. OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK

7 History of Crop Protection is closely linked with modernization of farming. Spanish Period ( ) introduction of new species and varieties of crops via the Galleon trade American Occupation ( ) use of fertilizers esp in sugarcane plantations After World War II ( ) DDT and other organochlorine insecticides

8 Crop protection evolved further...from reaction to pest outbreaks into an integral element of cropping system (INSECTICIDE-BASED CONTROL) Calendar-based spraying (INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT) Integrated Control ->Integrated Pest Control -> Integrated Pest Management (FARMER-CENTERED IPM) Farmer Field School (FFS); Kasakalikasan (1993)

9 Current Crop Protection Functions Pest Management Pesticide Management Plant Quarantine IPM-FFS GAP Biocontrol Registration Enforcement Food Monitoring Inspection Import Pest risk Analysis Phytosanitation

10 Drivers of Change Then 1. Poverty 2. Food Security 3. Environmental Degradation 4. Human Health Now 1. Poverty 2. Food Security 3. Environmental Degradation 4. Human Health 5. Climate Change 6. Global Trade

11 Challenges to Crop Protection in the 21 st Century 1. Food security and farmer empowerment still continues 2. Health and environmental concerns due to pesticide use 3. Global competitiveness 4. Incursions of invasive alien pest species 5. Climate Change (unpredictability)

12 GOALS of the National Agenda for Crop Protection 1. To increase farm productivity by reducing yield losses due to pests and/or crop protection costs 2. To produce crop yield that is safe for consumers and acceptable to local and international markets 3. To protect Philippine agriculture from new exotic pests that will adversely affect the industry

13 Strategies: 1. Empowerment of farmers and farmer organizations 2. Pro-active protection from endemic/exotic pests 3. Favourable policies that enhance competitiveness in local and foreign markets 4. Collaboration among stakeholders

14 Strategic Programs: 1. Empower farmer with knowledge and technology, availability of services, & community organizations 2. Set and negotiate agricultural product standards/policies for local competitiveness and international market 3. Strengthen pest risk analysis and quarantine system

15 Strategic Program Elements: Farmer Empowerment Training Technology development Meet standards (GAP, SPS) Food safety Pest Surveillance Response strategy & plans for outbreaks (incursion, migratory, emerging) Agricultural Biosecurity Prevent entry Detect early Contain Mitigate Competitiveness & International Trade Standard setting Development of standard procedures GAP, MRL Proactive risk assessment Certification Traceability Safer food Pest-less food
