Marketed Volume of Palay and Corn The “marketed volume of farmers’ produce” is an indicator that provides a measure of the farmers’ level of operation on the quantity of the agricultural production that is sold by the farmers for a given period. The total marketed volume of palay as a proportion to the total palay production slightly increased to 59.86 percent in 2015 from 59.75 percent in 2014. Nine out of the 16 regions exhibited increasing proportions in 2015. Cagayan Valley registered the biggest proportion of marketed palay at 74.20 percent. About 65 to 69 percent of the palay harvests were sold by the farmers in Northern Mindanao, Zamboanga Peninsula, ARMM and Davao Region. In contrast, the least proportion at around 40.0 percent was noted each in Western, Central and Eastern Visayas (Table 1a). In the case of corn, the proportion of the country’s production that was sold declined to 82.03 percent in 2015 from the 2014 record of 83.50 percent. By region, the highest proportion of the marketed volume of corn was still reported in Ilocos Region at 99.65 percent. This was followed by Central Luzon at 97.08 percent, Cagayan Valley at 96.33 percent and CAR at 95.00 percent. In ARMM, about 90.71 percent of the region’s harvests were marketed. On the other hand, Central and Eastern Visayas indicated the smallest proportions at 21.99 percent and 21.75 percent, respectively (Table 1b).
Government Procurement and Injection of Palay Government plays an important role in the marketing of palay through its procurement and injection programs. Procurement refers to the volume of government purchases directly from the farmers and farmers’ organizations at support price. This is being done to stabilize consumer price and to have continuous supply of the commodity. On the other hand, injection is the distribution by the government in the market through direct selling to end-user or to accredited outlets. The indicators of government procurement and injection show the extent of government intervention in palay marketing. In 2015, the volume of palay procurement reached 227,935 metric tons nationwide. This was nearly nine times higher than the 2014 record of 26,481 metric tons. At the regional level, palay procurement remained biggest in MIMAROPA at 97,486 metric tons in 2015. This accounted for 42.77 percent of the national palay procurement. About 10 to 14 percent

42.77 percent of the national palay procurement. About 10 to 14 percent shares on palay procurement were noted in Western Visayas, Bicol Region and Central Luzon ranging from 23,834 to 33,786 metric tons. Nine regions indicated shares of less than one (1) percent each. Of these regions, Central Visayas and ARMM had the lowest volume of procurement at 27 metric tons and 76 metric tons, respectively (Table 2a). The country’s volume of rice injection was reduced to 942,656 metric tons in 2015, lower by 28 percent from the 2014 level of 1,316,599 metric tons. The biggest rice injection was continuously reported in NCR at 203,742 metric tons, comprising almost one fifth of the total volume of rice sold or distributed in 2015. About 12 percent share or 112,200 metric tons of rice were sold by the government in Central Visayas. Rice injection in the regions of Central Luzon, CALABARZON, Bicol Region and Davao Region contributed 6.94 percent to 9.07 percent equivalent to 65,436 metric tons to 85,469 metric tons of rice. On the other hand, Caraga with 6,691 metric tons of rice sold registered the smallest share at 0.71 percent of the national rice injection (Table 2b).
Producer Price Index (PPI) The PPI describes the movement of farm prices by commodity and commodity groups in a given year compared to a base year (2006). On the average, the prices received by farmers for their produce decreased as PPI for agriculture dropped to 147.1 percent in 2015. This indicates that the average farm price in 2015 was 47.1 percentage points higher than base year record. In 2015, the average PPI of cereals contracted to 157.9 percent. Specifically, PPI of palay went down to 166.0 percent while PPIs of yellow corn and white corn slid to 131.9 percent and 144.5 percent, respectively. PPI of vegetables and legumes increased to 131.1 percent in 2015. Majority of the vegetables and legumes exhibited an upward trend. Ginger Hawaiian recorded the biggest PPI which increased to 672.2 percent in 2015 or more than six times higher than the price in 672.2 percent in 2015 or more than six times higher than the price in 2006 base year. This was followed by asparagus with PPI going down to 666.1 percent. Ginger native and black pepper came next as their respective PPIs surged to 549.2 percent and 471.0 percent. Declining and

From 2011 to 2015, CPI for all items continuously increased from 126.1 percent to 141.5 percent. It indicates that in 2015, the average price paid by the consumers for all items was 41.5 index points higher than the 2006 price level. Throughout these years, the CPIs of all the commodity groups, except communication, were on the uptrend and sustained above the 2006 record. Alcoholic beverages and tobacco remained with the highest CPI at 182.4 percent in 2015. This was followed by food and non-alcoholic beverages at 157.3 percent and education at 155.8 percent.

For food and non-alcoholic beverages, the monthly CPIs exhibited fluctuating trend with January having the lowest CPI at 157.5 percent and December the highest at 159.0 percent (Table 4b).
Price Gap Price gaps or mark ups of the different agricultural crops between the farmgate and the wholesale and retail levels indicate the formation of prices and the shares of market participants in the prices paid by the consumers. The farm-wholesale price gap of rice recovered from its downtrend in 2014. It went up from 115 percent in 2014 to 147 percent in 2015.

Price Gap Price gaps or mark ups of the different agricultural crops between the farmgate and the wholesale and retail levels indicate the formation of prices and the shares of market participants in the prices paid by the consumers. The farm-wholesale price gap of rice recovered from its downtrend in 2014. It went up from 115 percent in 2014 to 147 percent in 2015. This indicates that the price mark-up of rice from farm to wholesale level was 147 percent of the farm price. Similarly, widening of price gap was noted for corn; 29 percent for yellow corn and 8 percent for white corn. Majority of the reference vegetables posted increasing farm-wholesale price gaps in 2015. The biggest increments in price gap were reported in garlic and onion red creole which rose to 81 percent and 61 percent, respectively. The highest but decreasing farm-wholesale price gap in 2015 was recorded for gabi at 134 percent. On the other hand, the smallest price gap was noted for mongo green labo at 22 percent. In the case of fruits, increasing price gaps were noted in calamansi at 64 percent, mango at 46 percent and pineapple at 43 percent. Banana lakatan indicated the biggest gap which dropped to 103 percent (Table 5a).

42.77 percent of the national palay procurement. About 10 to 14 percent shares on palay procurement were noted in Western Visayas, Bicol Region and Central Luzon ranging from 23,834 to 33,786 metric tons. Nine regions indicated shares of less than one (1) percent each. Of these regions, Central Visayas and ARMM had the lowest volume of procurement at 27 metric tons and 76 metric tons, respectively (Table 2a). The country’s volume of rice injection was reduced to 942,656 metric tons in 2015, lower by 28 percent from the 2014 level of 1,316,599 metric tons. The biggest rice injection was continuously reported in NCR at 203,742 metric tons, comprising almost one fifth of the total volume of rice sold or distributed in 2015. About 12 percent share or 112,200 metric tons of rice were sold by the government in Central Visayas. Rice injection in the regions of Central Luzon, CALABARZON, Bicol Region and Davao Region contributed 6.94 percent to 9.07 percent equivalent to 65,436 metric tons to 85,469 metric tons of rice.

Marketed Volume of Palay and Corn The “marketed volume of farmers’ produce” is an indicator that provides a measure of the farmers’ level of operation on the quantity of the agricultural production that is sold by the farmers for a given period. The total marketed volume of palay as a proportion to the total palay production slightly increased to 59.86 percent in 2015 from 59.75 percent in 2014. Nine out of the 16 regions exhibited increasing proportions in 2015. Cagayan Valley registered the biggest proportion of marketed palay at 74.20 percent. About 65 to 69 percent of the palay harvests were sold by the farmers in Northern Mindanao, Zamboanga Peninsula, ARMM and Davao Region. In contrast, the least proportion at around 40.0 percent was noted each in Western, Central and Eastern Visayas (Table 1a). In the case of corn, the proportion of the country’s production that was sold declined to 82.03 percent in 2015 from the 2014 record of 83.50 percent. By region, the highest proportion of the marketed volume of corn was still reported in Ilocos Region at 99.65 percent. This was followed by Central Luzon at 97.08 percent, Cagayan Valley at 96.33 percent and CAR at 95.00 percent. In ARMM, about 90.71 percent of the region’s harvests were marketed. On the other hand, Central and Eastern Visayas indicated the smallest proportions at 21.99 percent and 21.75 percent, respectively (Table 1b).
Government Procurement and Injection of Palay Government plays an important role in the marketing of palay through its procurement and injection programs. Procurement refers to the volume of government purchases directly from the farmers and farmers’ organizations at support price. This is being done to stabilize consumer price and to have continuous supply of the commodity. On the other hand, injection is the distribution by the government in the market through direct selling to end-user or to accredited outlets. The indicators of government procurement and injection show the extent of government intervention in palay marketing. In 2015, the volume of palay procurement reached 227,935 metric tons nationwide. This was nearly nine times higher than the 2014 record of 26,481 metric tons. At the regional level, palay procurement remained biggest in MIMAROPA at 97,486 metric tons in 2015. This accounted for 42.77 percent of the national palay procurement. About 10 to 14 percent
