AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS AND IMPORTS
1 8
The trade performance of the country’s major agricultural commodities is described in terms of the year-on-year changes on the volume and value of agricultural export and import commodities. It also shows the contribution of the agricultural products in the country’s foreign trade. Agricultural Exports In 2018, the Philippine export earnings from agricultural products amounted to PhP 322.16 billion and this accounted for 8.83 percent of the total exports. The value of agricultural exports was 2.85 percent lower than the previous year’s record. Specifically, the exportation of rice at 308.9 metric tons valued at PhP 29.71 million contracted by 4.06 percent and 33.39 percent, respectively. Likewise, declines in exportation were observed for corn as its volume at 333.8 metric tons was reduced by 43.94 percent and value at PhP 52.05 million decreased by 38.11 percent. The export earnings from rice and corn contributed less than 0.1 percent each to the total value of agricultural exports. Fresh banana continued to be a major agricultural export commodity in 2018. About 3.13 million metric tons of fresh banana were exported and these amounted to PhP 72.78 billion. Its volume grew by 9.47 percent while the corresponding value increased by 27.95 percent. Hence, the share of fresh banana exports in the total agricultural export revenue rose to 22.59 percent. The volume of fresh pineapple exports at 391,982 metric tons and value at PhP 8.65 billion declined by 20.70 percent and 13.84 percent, respectively. Its contribution to the total earnings from agricultural exports was reduced to 2.69 percent in 2018. Fresh mango exports dropped to 13,562 metric tons in 2018 by 15.85 percent. Its export revenue amounting to PhP 990,942 declined by 15.11 percent and this comprised 0.31 percent of the total value of agricultural exports. Similarly, declining exportation was noted for centrifugal sugar as volume at 62,541 metric tons went down by 85.81 percent and value at 1.63 billion contracted by 84.12 percent. This resulted to a decreased share of 0.51 percent in the total earnings from agricultural exports. The export volume of Virginia tobacco at 7,468 metric tons was down by 16.88 percent. However, the revenue from the exportation of Virginia tobacco went up by 12.62 percent reaching PhP 1.37 billion which increased its share to 0.42 percent of the total value of agricultural exports.

AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS AND IMPORTS
Most of the other reference agricultural commodities recorded share of less than 0.1 percent of the country’s exports earnings from agricultural products. Increased volume and value of exports were reported for sweet potato, cassava, cabbage, papaya and watermelon. In contrast, declining exportations both volume and value were observed in onion, mongo beans, cocoa beans and garlic (Tables 1, 2, 2a and 2b).
Agricultural Imports The country’s expenditures for agricultural imports totaled PhP 742.60 billion in 2018 which was 25.26 percent higher than the 2017 record. The import value of agricultural products comprised 12.50 percent of the total import expenditures. The importation of rice in 2018 at 2.01 million metric tons expanded by 108.26 percent. Likewise, its corresponding value at PhP 45.79 billion recorded an increment of 153.96 percent. This pushed up the share of rice imports to 6.17 percent of the total value of agricultural imports. Similar trend was observed for corn imports whose volume increased to 1.02 million metric tons by 113.94 percent and value rose to PhP 15.72 billion by 141.55 percent. Corn imports accounted for 2.12 percent of the total payments for agricultural imports. In 2018, there was an abrupt increase in the importation of onion. The volume of onion imports at 108,081 metric tons indicated a 217.10 percent increment and its value at PhP 1.17 billion was higher by 278.15 percent than the previous year’s level. Therefore, the share of onion in the total value of agricultural imports moved up to 0.16 percent in 2018. About 76,287 metric tons of garlic were imported in 2018, valued at PhP 1.12 million. Its volume and value grew by 11.92 percent and 23.29 percent, respectively. The expenditures for garlic imports comprised 0.15 percent of the total import value of agricultural products. Imports of mongo beans at 38,231 metric tons worth PhP 1.54 billion recorded corresponding gains of 4.81 percent and 21.53 percent. The contribution of mongo beans imports in the total import value of agricultural commodities was 0.21 percent in 2018. For Virginia tobacco, the volume of imports went up to 20,289 metric tons or by 38.77 percent. Its respective value at PhP 5.43 billion rose by 32.28 percent and it shared 0.73 percent in the total expenditures for agricultural imports. Meanwhile, there was no reported importation of cassava, tomato, cabbage and pineapple in 2018.

AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS AND IMPORTS
Most of the other reference agricultural commodities recorded share of less than 0.1 percent of the country’s exports earnings from agricultural products. Increased volume and value of exports were reported for sweet potato, cassava, cabbage, papaya and watermelon. In contrast, declining exportations both volume and value were observed in onion, mongo beans, cocoa beans and garlic (Tables 1, 2, 2a and 2b).
Agricultural Imports The country’s expenditures for agricultural imports totaled PhP 742.60 billion in 2018 which was 25.26 percent higher than the 2017 record. The import value of agricultural products comprised 12.50 percent of the total import expenditures. The importation of rice in 2018 at 2.01 million metric tons expanded by 108.26 percent. Likewise, its corresponding value at PhP 45.79 billion recorded an increment of 153.96 percent. This pushed up the share of rice imports to 6.17 percent of the total value of agricultural imports. Similar trend was observed for corn imports whose volume increased to 1.02 million metric tons by 113.94 percent and value rose to PhP 15.72 billion by 141.55 percent. Corn imports accounted for 2.12 percent of the total payments for agricultural imports. In 2018, there was an abrupt increase in the importation of onion. The volume of onion imports at 108,081 metric tons indicated a 217.10 percent increment and its value at PhP 1.17 billion was higher by 278.15 percent than the previous year’s level. Therefore, the share of onion in the total value of agricultural imports moved up to 0.16 percent in 2018. About 76,287 metric tons of garlic were imported in 2018, valued at PhP 1.12 million. Its volume and value grew by 11.92 percent and 23.29 percent, respectively. The expenditures for garlic imports comprised 0.15 percent of the total import value of agricultural products. Imports of mongo beans at 38,231 metric tons worth PhP 1.54 billion recorded corresponding gains of 4.81 percent and 21.53 percent. The contribution of mongo beans imports in the total import value of agricultural commodities was 0.21 percent in 2018. For Virginia tobacco, the volume of imports went up to 20,289 metric tons or by 38.77 percent. Its respective value at PhP 5.43 billion rose by 32.28 percent and it shared 0.73 percent in the total expenditures for agricultural imports. Meanwhile, there was no reported importation of cassava, tomato, cabbage and pineapple in 2018.

The trade performance of the country’s major agricultural commodities is described in terms of the year-on-year changes on the volume and value of agricultural export and import commodities. It also shows the contribution of the agricultural products in the country’s foreign trade. Agricultural Exports In 2018, the Philippine export earnings from agricultural products amounted to PhP 322.16 billion and this accounted for 8.83 percent of the total exports. The value of agricultural exports was 2.85 percent lower than the previous year’s record. Specifically, the exportation of rice at 308.9 metric tons valued at PhP 29.71 million contracted by 4.06 percent and 33.39 percent, respectively. Likewise, declines in exportation were observed for corn as its volume at 333.8 metric tons was reduced by 43.94 percent and value at PhP 52.05 million decreased by 38.11 percent. The export earnings from rice and corn contributed less than 0.1 percent each to the total value of agricultural exports. Fresh banana continued to be a major agricultural export commodity in 2018. About 3.13 million metric tons of fresh banana were exported and these amounted to PhP 72.78 billion. Its volume grew by 9.47 percent while the corresponding value increased by 27.95 percent. Hence, the share of fresh banana exports in the total agricultural export revenue rose to 22.59 percent. The volume of fresh pineapple exports at 391,982 metric tons and value at PhP 8.65 billion declined by 20.70 percent and 13.84 percent, respectively. Its contribution to the total earnings from agricultural exports was reduced to 2.69 percent in 2018. Fresh mango exports dropped to 13,562 metric tons in 2018 by 15.85 percent. Its export revenue amounting to PhP 990,942 declined by 15.11 percent and this comprised 0.31 percent of the total value of agricultural exports. Similarly, declining exportation was noted for centrifugal sugar as volume at 62,541 metric tons went down by 85.81 percent and value at 1.63 billion contracted by 84.12 percent. This resulted to a decreased share of 0.51 percent in the total earnings from agricultural exports. The export volume of Virginia tobacco at 7,468 metric tons was down by 16.88 percent. However, the revenue from the exportation of Virginia tobacco went up by 12.62 percent reaching PhP 1.37 billion which increased its share to 0.42 percent of the total value of agricultural exports.
