    Market and State in Philippine Agricultural Policy

    Briones, Roehlano M. | February 2022
    Abstract
    This chapter aims to evaluate the country’s agricultural modernization strategy under the lens of the market-driven approach. The early post-War period of economic policy relates to solving the food problem solution for low-income countries, which minimizes farmer welfare and emphasizes benefits to the wealthier, non-farming class. This prevailed until the 1970s when the interest of the farming class began to be reasserted. By the 1990s the main issue was the the disparity problems, which considers as almost equally weighty, the interests of poor farmers, as well as that of non-agricultural consumers. In the 1990s, the nation enacted numerous market reforms to address the anti-market policies of the early 1990s. However, progress in implementing market reform for agriculture was largely moribund until 2019, with the enactment of the Rice Tariffication Act (RA 11203). Despite the reforms already enforced, further measures should be implemented, namely: i) Producer support for agriculture should move away from market price support in favor of expenditure support; ii) Expenditure support programs should themselves be oriented away from commodity-specific towards support for public goods and general services such as extension, regulatory, and market assistance services; iii) Expenditure programs require careful design along with functional tasks, performance indicators, and M&E systems; iv) Design, performance indicators, M&E systems, and appropriate strategies, should be put together in the AFMP, and structured around SAFDZs; iv) Sustained political will behind the market approach is needed to adopt it more consistent in agricultural policy.
