Brief History

The origins of the Department of Agriculture can be traced back to 1898. President Aguinaldo of the Philippines established it after he had ordered the establishment of the Manufacturing and Agriculture departments.

In 1901, the American colonial government prioritised developing various agricultural products, such as rice. This led to the creation of the Insular Agriculture Bureau. It was placed under the Interior Department. In 1910, this department was also placed under the supervision of Public Instruction.

Adriano Hernandez, who was the first Filipino to head the agency, was a practicing farmer. He was able to lead the Bureau of Agriculture because he had a background in agriculture.

The agency’s operations continued to grow until it was abolished following the enactment of Act No. 2666, which was also known as An Act to Re-organization the Executive Department of the Philippine Islands.

The act provided for the creation of the Department of Natural Resources and Agriculture, which would have the power to take over various administrative and managerial functions. These include the management of fisheries, hunting, and forestry. It was also authorized to assign certain matters to other agencies.

In 1932, the Department of Agriculture was re-organized following another Act. This new agency was known as the Department of Commerce and Agriculture. The previous agency, which was known as the Department of Communication and Commerce, was transferred to the new department.

During the time of the Commonwealth’s exile in 1942, the Department of Agriculture was re-organized. Following the resumption of the Commonwealth government in 1945, it was renamed the Department of Agriculture and Justice. Then, the following year, it was again combined with the Agriculture and Commerce departments.

In 1947, the Department of Agriculture was renamed the Department of Natural Resources and Agriculture following an executive order. Other agencies, such as the Bureau of Commerce, were also included in this new department.

In 1959, the Department of Agriculture moved to its new facility in Diliman, Quezon City. It was formerly located in the Agrifina Circle in Manila.

In 1974 by Presidential Decree No. 461, the DANR was divided into two: the Department of Agriculture and the Department Of Natural Resources, now known as the DENR.

Following the implementation of the parliamentary system in 1978, various government departments were transferred to ministries. For instance, the Agriculture and Food Office was renamed the Department of Agriculture in 1987.

The executive order that created the Department of Agriculture stated that the agency would focus on promoting agricultural development. It was also mandated to provide the necessary support services and policies to help businesses operating in the country. The agency improved the agriculture markets’ efficiency through its various reforms and policies.

These reforms included the elimination of various agricultural taxes and the establishment of new agricultural credit systems. The agency also started to phase out the direct lending scheme.

In 2014, four agencies that represented a significant portion of the DA’s budget were removed from the agency’s control following the implementation of anti-corruption reforms. Following the pork barrel scandal, these reforms were part of the agency’s efforts.

These agencies are now under the Office of the President, which is responsible for overseeing the various programs and activities of the Agriculture Department.

Functions and Responsibilities of the DA

The Department of Agriculture is a government agency that focuses on promoting agricultural development. It provides various support services and policies to help small and medium-sized enterprises develop their operations.

The goal of the DA is to ensure that the Philippines has a resilient and food-secure future. It aims to empower its farmers and fishers by developing effective and competitive agricultural practices. This can be done through the establishment of a comprehensive framework that includes the use of sustainable technologies and practices. Hence, its battlecry is simply: “Masaganang Ani at Mataas na Kita!”

The Philippines’ development plan (2017-2022), which aims to improve the lives of the country’s people, identified the expansion of the country’s agricultural, forestry, and fisheries (AFF) sectors as one of the key areas of focus. This sector is expected to create over 300,000 jobs and reduce inequality and poverty in rural areas.

The AFF is also expected to contribute to the country’s development by providing raw materials to various industries, resulting in more stable and higher-paying jobs. In order to fully capitalize on its potential, the government should focus on increasing the AFF’s efforts to promote inclusive development.

Through investments and interventions, the government can expand the scope of opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the AFF. This will encourage them to participate in the country’s development.

List of Programs and Services of the DA

As part of the DA’s commitment to supporting the country’s agricultural development, it has established programs and services that aim to provide farmers with the tools they need to be more productive. The following are some of these programs and services under the One DA Reform Agenda: Eighteen (18) Key Strategies

Bayanihan Agri-Clusters (BACs) – The concept of Bayanihan Agri Clusters is a combination of government interventions and the establishment of farmer-owned groups to reduce production costs and improve the efficiency of the agriculture value chain. These groups will be able to benefit from the various government support programs and loans.

Collective Action / Cooperatives Development – Through collective action, farmers and fishers can become part of business entities or cooperatives that can improve their operations and profits. This type of action can help them become more profitable.

Establishing strong linkages between major players in the food industry and organized farmers and fishers can help them secure a steady market for their products. This can also help them transfer technologies.

Province-led Agriculture and Fisheries Extension Systems (PAFES) – Through the establishment of PAFES, the Department of Agriculture (DA) aims to strengthen its collaboration with local government units and the private sector to provide extension services at the grassroots. Through the PAFES system, the provincial government can serve as an extension hub that coordinates the activities of various stakeholder groups. It also plans and executes agricultural programs and projects. The DA will work with other agencies to maximize the efficiency of the provinces’ efforts.

Mobilization and Empowerment of Partners – The DA will encourage private sector involvement in agri-based industries and develop markets for agricultural products in the country. It will also work with local governments to expand the scope of operations.
Diversification – The goal of this program is to encourage farmers to diversify their income sources and increase their production of various commodities such as rice, corn, and coconut.
Credit Support – The DA’s agricultural credit policy aims to encourage the participation of the banking and financial sectors in the rural financial system.

Technology and Innovation including Digital Agriculture – Through the use of digital technology and data analytics, the logistics and food value chain will be improved by delivering efficient and effective services to farmers. This will allow them to improve their farm productivity and reduce waste. One of the first steps in this process is to implement e-Kadiwa, which will allow them to distribute their inputs to their farmers. Through the use of digital databases, farmers will be able to monitor their crop production and improve the efficiency of their operations. This will allow them to develop a more sustainable and profitable farming industry.

Farm Mechanization and Infrastructure Investments – Vital rural infrastructure such as farm-to-market roads, irrigation systems, postharvest facilities, storage, tolling, processing, and marketing facilities, in partnership with the private sector and concerned agencies and LGUs, will be aligned and planned out according to their impact on supply, markets, and climate change. The private sector and LGUs will also be engaged in the creation of food hubs and establishment of efficient transport and logistics systems.

Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Measures – The DA will intensify its efforts to address climate change and other natural disasters through the establishment of regional and provincial vulnerability assessments. The DA will also strengthen its regional field offices (RFOs) to provide effective and timely disaster risk management and early warning services.

Food Safety and Regulations – The goal of the DA’s activities is to minimize the effects of animal and plant diseases by improving research facilities and establishing traceability systems. It will also work with other agencies to develop effective measures against these epidemics.
Agri-Industrial Business Corridors (ABCs) – The Department of Agriculture (DA) will establish agri industrial business corridors (ABCs) with trading posts and fisheries management areas to provide access to capital and resources for small-scale farmers and fisher folk. These areas will also feature state-of-the-art facilities such as hatcheries and nurseries.
Global Trade, Export Development, and Promotion – The value chain is a vital part of the development of regions and provinces, as it allows them to compete in the production of specific crops. It will be the center of project and program rollouts. Through the establishment of processing facilities and mechanization of farms, small and medium-sized enterprises will have the opportunity to participate in the export value chain. The goal of the DA is to encourage provinces and regions to develop their own high-value crops, which will allow them to compete in the global market. Through the support of international trade, the agency will also safeguard existing agreements.

Postharvest, Processing, Logistics, and Marketing Support – The Department of Agriculture (DA) will coordinate the activities of its various departments in the supply chain and production of agricultural goods. Through its partnership with local governments, the DA’s e-Kadiwa and Kadiwa will enhance their efforts in the procurement and marketing of agricultural products. The development of a national logistics system will help improve the efficiency of the agricultural supply chain. It will also help minimize the transportation costs of agricultural products to various consumption areas.

Agriculture Career System – As the number of students studying in agricultural universities and colleges increases, the DA will step up its efforts to encourage them to pursue careers in agriculture. Through its programs, the agency will also develop partnerships and linkages with other organizations that are focused on increasing the number of agripreneurs and farmers. Through its advisory role, the DA will also help develop curricula that are geared toward addressing the increasing number of students studying in agricultural universities. This will allow the sector to absorb more graduates from both the traditional and non-traditional fields. It will also help improve the country’s manpower capacity by implementing a merit and incentive system.

Education and Training: Agribusiness Management – Through training and education, farmers will be able to improve their skills and knowledge in farm business management and entrepreneurship. The agripreneurship program is a core strategy that aims to modernize the country’s agriculture sector and create employment opportunities for millions of farmers. A system will be established to recognize and promote the leadership roles in farmer organizations.

Youth and Women Engagement – Information dissemination on long-term agricultural programs, practices, and learning platforms will target the engagement of youth and women. As the active population of farmers and fishers enter senior citizenship, the DA will aid in the transition of the largest and most competitive agri-enterprises into the management of a younger crop of leaders, scientists, and researchers.

Ease of Doing Business and Transparent Procurement – The DA will continue to work toward establishing a more transparent procurement system. This will involve implementing a technology-driven approach. The DA will also help agripreneurs, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), reduce the cost and effort of doing business.

Strategic Communications – The Department of Agriculture (DA) will focus on developing effective communications strategies that will help improve the public’s understanding of the agri-fishery sector. This will involve integrating the agency’s various communications responsibilities into one.
