A ROADMAP FOR IMPACT:
THE PHILRICE STRATEGIC PLAN 2017-2022
The PhilRice Strategic Plan 2017-2022

Vision
Rice-Secure Philippines

Anchored on the
President’s and DA’s
vision of “available
and affordable food
to all Filipinos”
 Salient Features
1. We plan for business unusual scenarios
2. We move from production-intensive targeting
to the development of the whole rice industry
(Cultivation, Commerce, Consumption and
Competitiveness)
3. We identify strategic outcomes for the rice
industry’s growth through impact-oriented and
partnership-driven R4D
 Mission
“To improve the competitiveness of the
Filipino rice farmer and the Philippine
rice industry and transform it to be more
profitable, resilient, and sustainable
through responsive, balanced,
environmentally sound and partnership-
based research, development and
extension.”
 Core values and attributes

Relevance and Responsiveness

Integrity and Innovativeness
Collaborative and Collective Spirit
Excellence and Equity
 PhilRice’s Impact by 2022
The country attaining a competitive rice economy, with PhilRice
and partners generating and sharing cutting-edge agricultural
innovations vigorously guided by science-based and supportive
policies;
resilient rice-farming communities benefiting from increased
income in a sustainable environment;
improved rice trade through efficient post production, better
product quality and reliable supply, and distribution system; and
responsible consumers having access to safe, nutritious, and
affordable rice and rice-based products.

 Workshop 1 (March 14)
R4D Programs for Luzon
• In plenary session, all participants (please state your
name and affiliation) until 3PM today
• Any program specific for Luzon or already covered by
the six flagship programs?
• Consider:
- major issues and challenges that need to be
addressed as well as future scenarios (low
production and yield, low adoption, high
production cost, climate change, etc...)
- DA Rice Program thrusts and priorities
- existing/just completed programs/projects (what
are the gaps)
 R4D Programs

Farming Systems (CliComRice)
2. Hybrid Rice (HyR)
3. Rice Seed Systems (RSS)
4. Rice Farm Modernization and Mechanization (RFMM)

 Workshop 3 (March 15)

Organizational Structure
 R4D Programs for the Visayas (Suggestions)
• Hybrid Rice Model farms (derby) – screening of promising hybrids
in 5, 10ha (2017) …probable expansion in 2018 (Region 6)
• Trainings for AEWs > ATI has lined up activities on capability
building for extension workers
– Improve skills in preparation and conduct of research
• Occurrence of pests
– Stem borer (white & yellow), RBB, rice bug, BPH, WBPH
• Lack of projects in Socio-economy and Policy
• Lack of information dissemination of technologies derived from
R&D
• Dedicated irrigation system for PhilRice seed production farm
• Have a program to prepare LGUs during calamities in their food
requirements (iRISE)
• With the issues on connectivity > how to address the low level of
adoption of technologies?
 R4D Programs for the Visayas (Suggestions)
• Craft a program for rainfed/upland/marginalized lands
> Program for water-scarce environments
> Integrated RDE Program for water-scarce rice
environments in the Visayas
• Research-Extension-Farmer linkage
• Program to determine variety to plant
> Anihan Showdown (demo of new varieties for suitability)
• Subsidy on Certified Seeds?
• Program for intensive rice production system in irrigated areas (5-
croppings/2years)
• Tapping pool of agriculture students
• Program on Organic Rice Production system
 Workshop 1
• Group 1 > look at the 6 PhilRice Programs

Visayas Programs
