The Philippine Statistics Authority - Regional Statistical Services Office II (PSA-RSSO II) reported the Full Year 2018 Official Poverty Statistics through its Regional Dissemination Forum held on 21 January 2020 at Pulsar Premier Suites, Buntun Highway, Tuguegarao City, Cagayan. Ms. Marilyn T. Estrada, PSA-RSSO II Regional Director expressed her gratitude for the continued support and cooperation of stakeholders to all the endeavours of PSA. She ended her remarks by quoting Former South African President and philanthropist Nelson Mandela, “poverty is not by accident, not like slavery or apartheid, rather poverty is manmade”. She emphasized that poverty can be eradicated by actions of human being and so proper plans, proper decisions, proper policies and intervention, are the keys in uplifting the lives of every Filipino.

Assistant National Statistician (ANS) of the Social Sector Statistics (SSS), Wilma A. Gullien presented the official poverty methodology to orient the audience on how PSA generates estimates. She also related that the activity aims to provide poverty statistics to target users so that appropriate policies and programs can be crafted and implemented in alleviating the situation of poor communities in the Region. ANS Gullien also stated that the Full Year 2018 poverty statistics was based on the preliminary 2018 Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES), which used a much larger sample household based on the 2013 Master Sample. “A total of about 180,000 sample households were covered, which is four times larger than the sample size of previous

FIES,” ANS Gullien said. Furthermore, ANS Gullien added that the responses in the survey served as inputs to the poverty statistics and she further encouraged everyone to participate in any PSA surveys because their responses are consolidated to serve as inputs to official statistics that aid policy-makers and program implementers. RD Estrada then, presented the highlights of the 2018 Full Year 2018 Poverty Statistics. “In 2018, a family of five in Cagayan Valley Region needed at least 10,431 pesos, on average, to meet both basic food and non-food needs in a month,” RD Estrada said. This is an increase of 10.9 percent from the poverty threshold in the

PSA-RSSO II Jumpstarts 2020 with 2018 Official Poverty Statistics Dissemination Forum


2 Pasada Dos Vol. 2 No. 1

Full Year of 2015 estimated at 9,406 pesos. The regional poverty threshold was below the national average registered at 10,727 pesos in 2018. Moreover, according to RD Estrada, poverty incidence among families in Cagayan Valley Region in 2018 was estimated at 12.3 percent. This means that 123 out of 1,000 families in Cagayan Valley Region have incomes below the amount needed to buy their basic food and non-food needs in 2018. She also said that poverty incidence among families in Region II was above the national average registered at 12.1 in 2018. The number of poor families in Cagayan Valley Region in 2018 is estimated at 105,000 families. In 2015, this was estimated at 104,000 families. Also, the number of poor families in Cagayan Valley Region is 3.5 percent of the total number of poor Filipino families in the country in 2018. Among population, 4.1 percent or about 41 out of 1,000 Filipinos in Cagayan Valley Region were categorized as food poor with incomes below the amount needed to buy their basic food needs in 2018. In 2015, this was estimated at 3.3 percent or 33 per 1000 population. The subsistence incidence among families in Region II was below the national average registered at 5.2 in 2018. The 4.1 percent subsistence incidence among Population translates to about 146 thousand families in the Cagayan Valley Region that

fall below the food threshold in 2018. In 2015, this was estimated at about 114 thousand families. The number of food poor Filipinos in Cagayan Valley Region comprises 2.6 percent of the total number of poor Filipino in the country in 2018. Furthermore, RD Estrada announces that among the 5 provinces, Batanes posted a 6.6 percent poverty incidence among families in the full year of 2018. Cagayan recorded 9.6 percent, Isabela with 12.9 percent, Nueva Vizcaya with 11.4 percent, and Quirino with 8.9 percent poverty incidence among families in 2018. The Provinces of Batanes moved from cluster 4 to Cluster 5 in 2018 while Quirino moved from cluster 3 to 4 in 2018, respectively. This shows an improvement in these provinces. Cagayan, Isabela and Quirino were consistent in the Cluster 4 since 2015. Meanwhile, Assistant Regional Director (ARD) of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA), Engr. Ferdinand P. Tumaliuan related the statement of NEDA. He said that while the results are

very pleasing, one still has to note that the percentage of families who are food poor increased from 2.4 percent in 2015 to 2.9 percent in 2018 which means 24 out of 1000 thousand families in Region 02 have income below the minimum amount needed to buy their basic food needs. “With the data presented, we have to exert more effort to deliver the basic services and investment requirements of our population,” ARD Tumaliuan said. He emphasized to work harder to increase the Region’s investment potential that can possibly generate more jobs and achieve the regional development agenda particularly to reduce the number of food poor. The dissemination forum was actively participated by some 71 participants from Regional Line Agencies (RLAs), Local Government Units (LGUs), academe sector, private institutions, media partners and PSA-RSSO II executives and staff.

PSA-RSSO II conducts consultation workshop with stakeholders in Agriculture and Fishery Sector in Cagayan Valley

In line with the revision and rebasing of the National Accounts of the Philippines (NAP) from 2008 to 2018, the Agricultural Accounts Division (AAD) of the Macroeconomic Accounts Service (MAS) through the Regional Statistical Service Office II - Statistical Operations Coordination Division (RSSO II - SOCD) conducted a Regional Consultation Workshop with Stakeholders in Agriculture and Fishery Sector on 05 March 2020 at Villa Blanca Hotel,

Tuguegarao City. In her opening remarks, Regional Director Marilyn T. Estrada greeted all the guests and participants and started her message by quoting the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Undersecretary Rosemarie Edillion “Through scientific methods we crunched-up numbers and data to make sense of our day to day realties”. She highlighted the importance of scientific and statistical

methods in coming up with estimates in the formulation of general purpose statistics of planners and policymakers. She also said that the difficulty of coming up with estimates and methodologies because the agency is now facing with some challenges such as undercoverages, biases and data privacy law; where respondents will not answer completely. RD Estrada encouraged the stakeholders present to consult and articulate with the PSA. She also asked the body their support to improve statistical methodologies. The Overview of the Overall Revision and Rebasing of the National Accounts in the Philippines was presented by the Assistant National Statistician (ANS) Vivian R. Ilarina of MAS. Before she started with her presentation, she said that she was delighted with the great number of participants in the



event. She also said that the event was a very good avenue to consult the participants and come-up with the list of unique commodities in the region. ANS Ilarina explained that the System of National Accounts (SNA) is based on a set of internationally agreed concepts, definitions, classifications and accounting rules. She also explained the need to rebase and shared that rebasing of National Accounts means replacing the old base year used for compiling the constant price estimates to a new / more recent base year for computing constant price estimates. In principle, a change of base year in the national accounts implies: (a)

changing the price and quantity base for the individual price and quantity relatives, and (b) updating the weights used in aggregating the individual quantity relatives into sub-indices and to aggregate these sub-indices into more aggregated indices. After this, Ms. Maria Carol G, Duran, Division Chief of the AAD presented an Overview of the Performance of Philippine Agriculture and Performance of Agriculture in Cagayan Valley. The workshop proceeded after the discussion of all topics. The groups were divided into three; CROPS group, LIVESTOCK and POULTRY Group, and the FISHERIES group. Two hours

were given to the groups to accomplish the given template identifying and listing the commodities and species to be highlighted in the Performance of Agriculture Report. Emerging commodities and species in Region II were also listed. Aside from these, they also have to identify issues and concerns related to agricultural statistics including recommendations to address them. In her closing remarks, Ms. Maria Carol G. Duran said that she was very impressed and expressed her gratitude to all participants for the active participation during the workshop proper. She thanked RSSO II family for their successful coordination with other agencies and private sectors. She assured them that the agency will never get tired in updating its systems to provide comprehensive, accurate and timely statistics for decision making in all aspects of life.

STATISTICALLY SPEAKING...

The quarterly Palay and Corn Production Survey (PCPS) of PSA revealed that Cagayan Valley still contributed the largest corn production in country in 2019. With the national corn production in 2019 at almost eight million metric tons, the region’s production accounted to about one fourth of the national production pie. Note that the current level of production, and even during the past years, put the region at No. 1 in terms of corn production across regions in the country. The Northern Mindanao region with 16.5 percent share to the total production is ranked No. 2 and far behind the Cagayan Valley’s share of 23.4 percent. ARMM and SOCCKSARGEN region with virtually identical share contributed more than one fourth to the national corn output in 2019 while Ilocos region filled-in about 7.2 percent. Remarkably, production from the rest of the regions at 25.1 percent is almost equal to the output of Region II alone.

Meanwhile, based on the same survey, palay production in the region in 2019 is only 14.1 percent of the country’s palay estimate at 18.8 million metric tons. Cagayan Valley’s production is behind the Central Luzon’s output at almost one fifth of the national production and placed the latter at the top rank in terms of palay production across regions in the country. Western Visayas region, the third palay producer in the country, contributed about 11.0 percent to the national production while Ilocos region shared 9.8 percent and captured the fourth position in the regional ranking of palay production. MIMAROPA, Bicol and SOCCKSARGEN regions were in the 5th to 7th placed in the order of production with close to more than six percent contribution each. The remaining seven regions partakes more than one fourth of the national palay production.

Cagayan Valley still ranked No. 1 in corn production in the country while No. 2 in palay production
