The Philippines has 30 million hectares of land classified as either alienable and disposable or forestland. 50% is forestland, 47% is alienable and disposable land, and 3% is unclassified forestland. The primary source of livelihood in the Philippines is its fertile land, which produces six major crops: rice, corn, sugarcane, coconut, abaca, and tobacco. However, mining, erosion, dam construction, commercial fertilizer use, and large buildings threaten to destroy the Philippines' land resources, so preservation efforts like terracing, contour farming, crop rotation, reforestation, limiting mining and construction are important.
