| description | This study was conducted to further the understanding on
the cropping patterns practiced in Palawan, Philippines. Based
on the concept that the farm and the farm household are
interrelated and using various analytical techniques, the
current cropping patterns, the availability and the efficiency
of resource utilization were analysed and documented.

subsistence in nature since their gross income (cash and
imputed) barely met the production and personal consumption
needs of the farm household. However, they were observed to exhibit a considerable degree of market orientation in both
input utilization and production. Fertilizer and hired labour
constitute a greater proportion of the operating cost.Sales
of annual crops constitute a greater proportion of the cash
income and it was augmented with income from non-farm
activities. |
