EXPLANATORY NOTES
This report describes the palay and corn crop situation for
January-September 2013. It also presents the outlook for October-December
2013 and January-March 2014 using the forecasts based on farmers’
standing crop and planting intentions, respectively. The estimates and
forecasts are based on the results of the October 2013 Palay and Corn
Production Survey (PCPS) which the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics
(BAS) conducts nationwide.
The report likewise contains information on monthly prices of palay,
rice, corn and fertilizer; and, cumulative actual decadal and normal rainfall.
Data on prices are the results of the Weekly Cereals and Fertilizer Price
Monitoring (WCFPM) of the BAS. Rainfall data are sourced from the
Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA).

Weather Situation and Outlook1
July-September 2013 Situation
The period was the peak of the southwest (SW) monsoon season, locally known
as “habagat” and tropical cyclone activity was at its maximum. Equatorial sea
surface temperatures (SSTs) were near average across much of the equatorial
Pacific Ocean and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-neutral conditions still
persisted during the period.
The weather systems that affected the country during this period were the ridge of
high pressure area (HPA), monsoon trough, inter-tropical convergence zone
(ITCZ), low pressure area (LPA), enhanced southwest monsoon (SW) and the
passage of twelve (12) tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Philippine Area of
Responsibility (PAR), namely; Typhoon (TY) “Juaning” (July 10-13), Tropical
Storm (TS) “Isang” (July 16-18), TS “Jolina” (July 30-31), Tropical Depression
(TD) “Kiko” (August 5-6), TY “Labuyo” (August 9-12), TS “Maring” (August
17-21), TS “Nando” (August 25-29), TY “Odette” (September 16-22), TS
”Paolo” (September 26-27) and TS “Quedan” (September 29- October 5). These
weather systems collectively brought excessive rains in most parts of CAR, Ilocos
Region, Central Luzon, CALABARZON and MIMAROPA.
October-December 2013 Outlook
The period covers the transition from SW monsoon to Northeast (NE) monsoon.
The weather systems that may influence the country are the tail end of the cold
front, ITCZ, easterly wave, ridge of high pressure area (HPA), the easterlies and
about five (5) to eight (8) tropical cyclones. During the season, tropical cyclones
normally move on a westerly direction between central and southern parts of
Luzon and Visayas. However, some TCs tracks usually cross over Northern
Mindanao area.

1.0 Highlights
Based on the Palay and Corn Production Survey (PCPS) October 2013 Round,
palay production estimates for the first three (3) quarters and forecast for the
fourth quarter of 2013 would be higher than the 2012 level. On the other hand,
corn production may be lower than the output in 2012.
In the first quarter of 2014, positive growths are foreseen for palay and corn
crops.
1.1 Palay
Calendar Year 2013 Forecast
Palay production for
calendar year 2013 is
forecast at 18.58 million MT,
3.0% higher than the 2012
output of 18.03 million MT.
Harvest area may expand by
1.7%, or from 4.69 million
hectares last year to 4.77
million hectares this year.
Yield per hectare may
improve by 1.3% from 3.84
MT to 3.90 MT.
July-December 2013 Crop
Production for July-
December 2013 may reach
10.58 million MT, 4.4%
higher than last year’s record
of 10.14 million MT. Harvest
area may increase by 2.7%,
or from 2.65 million hectares
in 2012 to 2.73 million hectares this year. Yield per hectare may improve
from 3.82 MT to 3.88 MT or by 1.6%.

The July-September 2013
production at 3.36 million
MT was 6.5% below the
2012 level of 3.60 million
MT. Harvest area contracted
by 8.20%. From 947
thousand hectares in 2012,
harvest area decreased to
870 thousand hectares this
year. Yield per hectare
improved from 3.80 MT to
3.87 MT or by 1.8%.
Significant decreases in
production and harvest area
were noted in Cagayan
Valley, Western Visayas,
Bicol Region, ARMM,
Davao Region and Ilocos
Region.
In Cagayan Valley, the
adverse effects of moisture
stress and later on by
typhoons “Labuyo” and
“Odette” resulted in lower
yield while the late release
of irrigation water and late
onset of rainfall caused movement of cropping to the fourth quarter.
In Western Visayas, lower production was attributed to contraction in
harvest area caused by delayed plantings due to late onset of rainfall. This
resulted in the slide of cropping to the fourth quarter.
In Bicol Region, ARMM, Ilocos Region and Davao Region, the decrease
in production and harvest area could be attributed to some areas being left
in-fallow, late/insufficient release of irrigation water, late onset of rainfall
and damages due to “habagat” and typhoons “Maring”, “Nando” and
“Odette”.

The October-December 2013 production forecast based on standing crop
indicates 10.3% growth from last year’s level of 6.54 million MT to 7.22
million MT this year. Harvest area may expand to 1.86 million hectares,
or 8.7% above last year’s record of 1.71 million hectares. Yield per
hectare may improve by 1.5%, from 3.83 MT to 3.89 MT.
Probable increases in production in all regions are foreseen compared to
last year. This could be attributed to expansion in harvest area due to
movement of cropping from third quarter to fourth quarter, availability of
seed support from DA/PhilRice seed banking program, LGUs’ “plant-
now-pay-later” scheme and distribution of rehabilitation seeds to areas
damaged by typhoons and floods.
This quarter’s yield may improve in all regions except in Central Luzon
which was heavily affected by “habagat”. The increases could be
attributed to more usage of hybrid and HYV seeds, sufficient water
supply, increased fertilizer application, lesser occurrence of pests and
diseases, and improved weather conditions.
January-March 2014 Forecast
Based on farmers’ planting
intentions, the January-
March 2014 production
forecast is 4.33 million MT,
3.8% above the 4.17 million
MT output in 2013. Harvest
area may expand from 1.11
million hectares in 2013 to
1.15 million hectares in 2014,
or by 3.4%. Yield per
hectare may improve from
3.75 MT to 3.76 MT, or by
0.4%.
Probable large production increments are expected in Western Visayas,
ARMM, Davao Region, Bicol Region and Ilocos Region.

In Northern Mindanao, more
farmers were encouraged to
plant because of LGUs’
agriculture production
assistance program through
provision of seeds to farmers
affected by typhoon “Pablo”
last year. The high demand
for corn from piggery and
poultry raisers, good price
and presence of financiers-
traders pushed production to
go up.
In SOCCSKSARGEN, growth in production was enhanced by higher
usage of hybrid and GMO seeds, increased fertilizer application and lesser
occurrence of pests. In Western Visayas, the reasons cited for increased
production and larger harvest area were better prices, availability of seeds,
interventions from DA/LGUs and presence of financiers.
Based on standing crop, the
October-December 2013
corn production is forecast
at 1.45 million MT, 3.8%
below the 1.51 million MT
output in 2012. Harvest area
may contract from 576
thousand hectares to 557
thousand hectares. Yield per
hectare may decrease from
2.62 MT to 2.60 MT or by
0.7%.
Significant reductions in corn production and harvest area during the
period could be attributed to the adverse effects of moisture stress and
later by typhoons “Labuyo” and “Odette” during the reproductive stage of
the crop in Cagayan Valley. In Northern Mindanao, the shifting to cash
crops, pineapple and palm oil may bring down production and harvest
area.

January-March 2014 Forecast
The January-March 2014
production, based on
farmers’ planting intentions
may reach 2.39 million MT
which is 6.5% above the
2013 level of 2.25 million
MT. Harvest area may be
larger by 4.3%, or from 703
thousand hectares to 733
thousand hectares. Yield per
hectare may improve by
2.1% from 3.20 MT in 2013
to 3.27 in 2014.
Farmers in most of the regions intend to increase their plantings. In
ARMM, expansion of harvest area is expected due to utilization of land-
in-fallow. Bigger production is expected in Northern Mindanao in
anticipation of good weather to prevail. Plantings in Davao Region may
increase due to seeds assistance and additional areas for green corn.
Farmers in CALABARZON are encouraged to plant more corn due to
availability of high quality seeds and continuous technical support
provided by DA/LGUs and private sectors.
