4 THE SOLUTION
5 PhilGAP Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) approach applies recommendations and available knowledge to address environmental, economic and social sustainability from on-farm production and post-production processes resulting in safe and healthy food and non-food agricultural products. PhilGAP is based on compliance to certain standards on farm structure, environment and maintenance, farming practices and farm management
6 What Problem or Market Opportunity does PhilGAP addresses?
7 Philippine food exports: 3.85% of the total exports, generating $1.82B in foreign revenues in Top Agricultural Exports: Coconut, Banana, Pineapple, Mango Major export markets are the United States, Japan, the Netherlands, China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
8 Cavendish Lacatan The Philippine Fruit Industry may be one of the few industries in the country that is not wallowing from either a decreasing trend in production or lack of market Banana 2 nd largest agri export of the country. Data from , RP is 3 rd major exporting country of banana. 81% is imported by Japan. Saba chips Banana-q Wine Vinegar Latundan
9 Pineapple Philippines is the 3 rd largest producer of pineapple (Thailand, Brazil 2005)
10 Mango RP ranks 5 th in Asia in terms of production, 2 nd top exporter in 1998, although rate is fluctuating, the Carabao variety is recognized as the best tasting fruit of its kind, and the sweetest in the world.
11 Citrus ranks 4 th among the fruit crops with the greatest contribution to RP economy Calamansi (Philippine lemon) Citrus microcarpa Bunge unique only in the Philippines. Used as ingredient in juice, syrups, concentrates & purees, while the peel is processed into jams, candies, and marmalades Exported as either fresh, juice & juice concentrates, dried.
12 Tomato the country produces only about 150,000 MT. Ranks 3 rd largest producer in Southeast Asia. Usually processed to paste and sauce.
13 How was the solution developed?
14 Food Safety & Quality Issues Retailers requirements Consumer s expectations & changing priorities in what people want in a food Trade requirements (WTO) Emergence of other GAP programs
15 BUREAU OF AGRICULTURE & FISHERIES PRODUCTS STANDARDS Formulate & enforce standards of quality in the processing, preservation, packaging, labeling, importation, exportation, distribution & advertising of agricultural & fisheries products; Conduct research on product standardization, alignment of the local standards with the international standards
16 PhilGAP Development Implementation Sustainability and the Way forward
17 Development Phase
18 Modern Food Safety Approach GMP/ HACCP GAP Process / Certification GMP/ HACCP Whole Chain QA Farm to Fork Process based certification Traceability Transparency Values adding Product check/ Sampling Assured safe & quality food
19 Development Phase Code of Practice for Farming Incorporating principles of HACCP Food safety management system Systematic & scientific approach to risk assessment & management Identification of Hazards Validated control measures operated at Critical Control Points Current MODELS COFFS program USA GAP SQF program SALM Q Mark Challenge Integrate into PhilGAP s existing food safety programme, ride on robust regulatory framework, and optimising on current operational resources
20 Approval: Guidelines on the Certification of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) for Fruits and Vegetable (FV) Farming (DA AO #25) : 2005
21 Implementation
22 Scope of Guidelines This establishes the rules applied by the Department of Agriculture (DA) for granting, maintaining and withdrawing Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Certificate to individual growers or farms in the fresh fruit and vegetable sector or to their Produce Marketing Organizations (PMOs) that market and or trade the produce
23 Setting the Objectives To increase the market access of horticultural products both in the local and foreign markets To empower farmers to respond to the demands of consumers that specific criteria to achieve food safety and quality be met To facilitate farmer adoption of sustainable agricultural practices
24 Setting the Objectives To uplift GAP-FV farmers profile as member of the nationally recognized list of vegetable farmers who are setting the benchmark for the production of safe and quality fruits and vegetables To enable consumers exercise the option of buying quality fruits and vegetable from traceable and certified sources
25 Safety & Quality Traceability Credibility / Brand New Market Profits / $$$ Customers Farmers Importers/ Retailers agri-produce establishments > competitive edge over those with non-certified sources Demonstrate transparency and credibility of farm production system > food safety assurance to domestic consumers
