- Philippine agriculture employs 37% of the labor force and is an important source of food and livelihood for rural communities. However, labor productivity has been declining.
- Key challenges include low investment in agriculture, environmental degradation, high population growth, land conversion, and effects of climate change like more frequent typhoons. This has led to low agricultural productivity and widespread poverty and unemployment.
- To address these issues, the document recommends increasing food production and rural employment, boosting agricultural productivity through improved technology and education, and developing climate-resilient varieties and conservation measures to confront climate change impacts.
Techniques of increasing the forest cover on agricultural areasGobishankar Mohan
This document discusses techniques for increasing forest cover on agricultural areas. It begins by providing global context on forests and land use change. It then discusses drivers of conversion from forest to agriculture. Options for restoration are outlined, including woodland islets, agroforestry techniques, and forest landscape restoration. Examples of increased forest cover through these techniques are provided from Niger, South Korea, and targets in Sri Lanka. The conclusion emphasizes restoring and sustaining forest productivity and ecosystem services to reverse degradation.
Forests cover 29.8% of Rwanda's land but are threatened by high population density, demand for fuelwood, and agricultural expansion. This has led to deforestation, loss of biodiversity, soil erosion, flooding, and landslides. Rwanda has committed to the Bonn Challenge to restore 709,761 hectares of degraded land by 2020. Through forest landscape restoration, Rwanda has created 186,000 green jobs and improved livelihoods while stimulating investment in forestry. Restoration efforts have rehabilitated seed stands and involved stakeholders to develop management plans, helping Rwanda mitigate climate change and sustainably manage its forest resources.

Managing acid soils for reclaiming livelihoods in EthiopiaICRISAT
Soil acidification is the result of a complex set of processes caused both naturally and by human activity. It limits plant growth because of conditions that increase base element deficiencies, Phosphorus-fixation and toxicities of Aluminum, Manganese and Hydrogen ions.In acid soils, where Phosphorus (P) fixation is a problem, application of Farm Yard manure (FYM) releases a range of organic acids that can form stable complexes with Aluminum and Iron thereby blocking the P retention sites and releasing P. In extreme acidic soils Triticale rye with hybrid wheat was found to be producing a good crop.

5. I. Introduction
Need more
Increase food, settleme More Land
population nt
6. Cambodia arable land: approximately 80%
But this number is decreasing because of the issue concerning :
Farmland
Forest clearance
Logging
7. II. Land supply problem
Land
degradation
Forest
Farmland Logging
clearance
8. 1. Farmland
• Farmers started using organic and inorganic fertilizers to increase more
yields
• Rice productivity has also increased moderately due to the usage of
fertilizers, with the average of 1.8 tons per hectare (MAFF 2004)
• Still, rice yields in Cambodia is the lowest compared to the other
countries in south-east Asia.
• However, there are many problems concerning Farmland in Cambodia
which are caused by :
Using too much chemical fertilizers
Over farming practices
9. 1.1. Chemical Fertilizers
• Using Chemical or inorganic fertilizers gives positive and negative
impact to the land :
Positive impact : the increased of chemical fertilizers produce
more crop yields.
Negative impact : - Make the soil less or no longer fertile
- The crops have less quality
10. 1.2. Poor farming Practices
• Lack of modern farming knowledge
• Poor farming practice in the cultivating area causes the land to lose its
fertility and soil erosion
• Farmers are forced to abandon the land and find somewhere else to
grow crops.
• Using more fertilizers (both organic and inorganic) to help check the
falling productivity.
11. 2. Forest Clearance
• 1985 – 1997, cultivated land increased 3.1 – 4.3 million ha
forest decreased 11.8 – 10.6 million ha ( Landsat-TM
satellite image, DFW, MAFF )
• Agricultural expansion : Shifting Cultivation. ( Ex: Ratanakiri and
Mondolkiri provinces )
• Land encroachment for industrial or personal purpose
• Causes land erosion, Barren land
12. 3. Logging
• 1996 – 2001 : Timber production 1.2 million m3
Processed and exported 920,415 m3 (DFW/MAFF 2003)
• Cutting woods for commercial logging
• Wood harvesting for fuel wood and charcoal production
• Problem: Land erosion, Flood,
13. III. Management
Farmland
• Royal Government of Cambodia through MAFF has been carried out
the five-year plan (2001-2005) to ensure the food security through
soil improvement.
• IPM (Integrated Pest Management) program with IPM technique
• Make use of the existing land by : - Irrigation
- Expand cultivated area
- Improve water policy
- Introduction of improved seed
varieties
14. Forest Clearance
• Government addressing the land by :
‐ Establishing in MLMUPC (1999)
- requesting during the Consultative Group meeting
- Statement on land policy (May 2001)
Logging
• Revising the forestry law and issuing Sub-decree
• Prevent further deforestation
• Reforestation various tree species (on National Arbor Day)
15. IV. Challenges
• Arable land in some places still not improved (Ex: The soil is too hard)
• Farmers use more chemical fertilizers
• Commercial logging is still in sight
• Flooding even more
16. V. Conclusion
In conclusion, There still need improvement and the government should
take extra attention on those problems and solve it by :
Natural fertilizers
Teaching effective farming technique
Encourage reforestation
Tighten up the law for deforestation for person or commercial benefits
