The Philippines has over 7,000 islands with a variety of landforms including mountains, hills, valleys, plateaus, and rice fields. The main land resources of the Philippines are rice, corn, abaca, coconut, sugarcane, tobacco, wood, geothermal power. However, human activities like mining, dam construction, and natural disasters such as soil erosion, El Niño, and typhoons threaten these resources. The government has implemented interventions such as banning commercial fertilizers, terracing, contour farming, limiting mining and construction to help preserve land resources.

Editor's Notes
- Good Afternoon everyone! We are from the RED group. Today we’ll talking about the different LAND resources of the Philippines PLEASE IGORE MY TYPO’s IN THIS NOTES SECTION, FOR THIS SHALL ONLY BE MY GUIDE FOR ELOCUTION DURING THE REPORTING hehehhe
- INTRODUCTION: As we all know The Philippines is the best example of an Archipelago country. Because it is composed of a total of 7,107 islands. And within these 7,107 island is a large variety of land formations like Mountains, Hills, Valley, Platues and rice fields. {PLEASE IGORE MY TYPO’s IN THIS NOTES SECTION, FOR THIS SHALL ONLY BE MY GUIDE FOR ELOCUTION DURING THE REPORTING hehehhe}
- In these picture you can clearly see how beautiful these land formations are. And it make us feel proud of our country to have such unique beauty PLEASE IGORE MY TYPO’s IN THIS NOTES SECTION, FOR THIS SHALL ONLY BE MY GUIDE FOR ELOCUTION DURING THE REPORTING hehehhe

- We’ll show you the Benefits Proven from our land resources through a simple dance, song & acting… ENJOY! ACTING = “I would like to export these products of mine.” “I accept your offering & in return I shall give you this money”
- Last bullet = take Manila as an example of this problem. Because the city is SO developed with massive buildings, the city’s total land area in terms of natural things like trees, etc. is decreasing because of this! For Natural Disasters the Philippines as we all know has a TROPICAL TYPE of weather, so our country is very prone to typhoons!
