EXPLANATORY NOTES
The data for this special release were collected by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) through the Crops Production Survey (CrPS). The CrPS generates basic production statistics for crops other than palay and corn. The survey collects data on: (1) volume of production; (2) area planted/harvested; (3) number of bearing trees; (4) yield per hectare; (5) yield per bearing tree; and (6) bearing trees per hectare.
Data collection for CrPs is done quarterly and is conducted during the last 10 days of
the 2nd month of the reference quarter.
Camarines Sur registered the biggest production of sugarcane in the Bicol Region at
193.51 thousand metric tons and represented 73.27 percent to the region’s output of
