FOREWORD
This report describes the palay and corn crop situation from October to December 2019. The estimates are the results of the January 2020 round of the Palay Production Survey (PPS) and Corn Production Survey (CPS) conducted quarterly by the PSA.
The report also includes information on monthly prices of palay, rice, corn and fertilizer; and cumulative actual decadal and normal rainfall. Data on prices are sourced from the Weekly Cereals and Fertilizer Price Monitoring (WCFPM) of the PSA, while rainfall data are provided by the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).

BACKGROUND1
Scope and Coverage
The Palay Production Survey (PPS) and Corn Production Survey (CPS) are the sources of data for palay and corn published in this Bulletin.
Production and harvest area for palay and corn are generated from PPS and CPS, respectively, which have four survey rounds in a year, that is, January, April, July and October.
Crops statistics cover all regions, except National Capital Region (NCR).
Sampling Methodology
The sampling design of PPS and CPS uses the results of the 2012 Census of Agriculture (CAF) and 2017 Listing of Farm Households (LFH) as the sampling frames. It employs a replicated two-stage stratified sampling design with province as domain. The barangay is the primary sampling unit, which is selected using probability proportional to size scheme. The farming household serves as the secondary sampling unit, which is selected systematically.
Data Collection
For PPS and CPS, data collection is conducted quarterly during the first 10 days of the month after the reference quarter, except for the fourth quarter where data collection is made earlier.
Concepts and Definitions
Crop production refers to the quantity produced and actually harvested for a particular crop during the reference period. It includes those harvested but damaged, stolen, given away, consumed, given as harvester’s share, reserved, etc. Excluded are those produced but not harvested due to low price, lack of demand and force majeure or fortuitous events, etc. Harvest area refers to the actual area from which harvests are realized. This excludes crop area which were totally damaged. It may be smaller than the area planted.

HIGHLIGHTS
1.0 PALAY AND CORN SITUATION
PALAY
Palay production from October to December 2019 was 7.49 million metric tons. This was 4.7 percent higher than the level in the same period a year ago of 7.16 million metric tons. On the other hand, harvest area contracted to 1.84 million hectares from the previous year’s record of 1.85 million hectares. Yield increased to 4.07 metric tons per hectare or higher by 5.2 percent from the 2018 level of 3.87 metric tons. (Figure 1 and Table 1.1 to 1.3) o Increment in production was largest
in Cagayan Valley at 0.23 million
metric tons or by 31.4 percent. This
was followed by Western Visayas at
0.14 million metric tons (19.9%); and
Ilocos Region, 0.10 million metric
tons (9.2%). These regions also
increased in harvest area.
o Yield of palay per hectare in the
Cordillera Administrative Region
(CAR) and Cagayan Valley
increased by 31.0 percent and
28.1 percent, respectively, from their
respective levels in 2018. (Table 1.3)

FIGURE 3 Distribution of Irrigated Palay Production
by Region, October-December: 2019
FIGURE 4 Distribution of Rainfed Palay Production by Region, October-December: 2019
Palay production from irrigated areas
contributed 71.1 percent to the total palay
output for the quarter, while the remaining
28.9 percent comprised the production from
rainfed areas. (Figure 2 and Table 1.4
to 1.5)
Irrigated palay output was recorded at
5.33 million metric tons during the reference
quarter. This was higher by 0.37 million
metric tons (7.5%) than the 2018 level of
4.95 million metric tons. Bulk of the
production came from Central Luzon,
Cagayan Valley, and Ilocos Region with a
combined share of 54.4 percent of the total
production from irrigated areas. (Figure 3
and Table 1.4)
Rainfed palay output was registered at
2.17 million metric tons, 0.16 million
metric tons (1.5%) lower than the 2018
level of 2.20 million metric tons. The
regions of Ilocos Region, Western Visayas
and MIMAROPA were the top producers for
rainfed palay. (Figure 4 and Table 1.5)

CORN The October to December 2019 corn
production of 1.66 million metric tons
was lower by 8.2 percent than the 2018
level of 1.81 million metric tons.
Harvest area decreased to
559.03 thousand hectares from
the previous year’s record of
611.80 thousand hectares (8.6%).
However, yield per hectare increased by
0.5 percent, from 2.95 metric tons in
2018 to 2.97 metric tons in 2019.
(Figure 6 and Tables 1.6 to 1.8)
o Cutback in production was highest
in Cagayan Valley at 0.15 million
metric tons (42.2%), from the
previous year’s level of 0.36 million
metric tons. This was followed by
Zamboanga Peninsula (0.02 million
metric tons), and CALABARZON
(0.01 million metric tons).
Decrements in harvest area were
also observed in these regions.
o Yield of corn per hectare in CAR at 4.42 metric tons increased by 48.6 percent
compared with the previous year’s level of 2.98 metric tons.

FIGURE 8 Distribution of Yellow Corn Production by Region, October-December: 2019
FIGURE 9 Distribution of White Corn Production by Region, October-December: 2019
Of the total corn production for October to
December 2019, yellow corn accounted for
69.6 percent, while white corn comprised
the remaining 30.4 percent. (Figure 7 and
Table 1.9 to 1.10)
Production of yellow corn was recorded at
1.15 million metric tons during the
reference period. This was 10.9 percent
lower than the 2018 level of
1.30 million metric tons. The major yellow
corn producing regions were
Northern Mindanao, SOCCSKSARGEN
and Cagayan Valley with a combined
output of 71.2 percent. (Figure 8 and
Table 1.9)
Production of white corn was posted at
0.50 million metric tons. This was lower by
1.2 percent than the previous year’s level
of 0.51 million metric tons. About
70 percent of the 2019 output was shared
by Northern Mindanao, ARMM,
SOCCSKSARGEN and Davao Region.

3.0 WEATHER INDICATOR, OCTOBER-DECEMBER 20193
Weak El Niño condition which started since the last quarter of 2018 had persisted in the Central and Eastern Equatorial Pacific (CEEP). The warmer than average sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have slightly weakened in June, but still within El Niño threshold. It is expected that a transition from El Niño to ENSO-neutral condition will be likely to occur in August or September, with ENSO-neutral favored to continue through the last quarter of 2019. Rainfall assessment for the month of October 2019 in most parts of Luzon and eastern Visayas received way below to below normal rainfall conditions. Meanwhile, near to above normal rainfall were experienced over the western and central parts of Visayas and Mindanao. For the month of November 2019, it showed that near to above normal rainfall conditions were experienced in most parts of northern and central Luzon, MIMAROPA, Batangas, Cavite, Metro Manila, Panay Island, South Cotabato and most parts of Davao Region. The remaining parts of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao received below to way below normal rainfall conditions. The rainfall assessment for December 2019 showed most parts of Luzon and Visayas, and some parts of Davao Region experienced near to above normal rainfall. However, the remaining parts of Mindanao received below to way below normal rainfall conditions. The weather systems that affected the country were the low pressure areas (LPAs), localized thunderstorms, easterlies, northeast (NE) monsoon, and the passage of six (6) tropical cyclones (TCs) over the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR), namely, Typhoon (TY) “Perla” (October 16-20), Typhoon (TY) “Quiel” (November 5-8), Typhoon (TY) “Ramon” (November 12-20), Severe Tropical Storm (STS) “Sarah” (November 19-22), Typhoon (TY) “Tisoy” (November 30 – December 5) and Typhoon (TY) “Ursula” (December 23-28).
