Excerpt:
IFUGAO, Philippines – From the road along Tinoc, Ifugao, the view of mountaintops and slopes was a patchwork quilt of vegetable gardens.
On the wayside were a group of gardeners hauling baskets of carrots onto a truck. They were bound for the trading post in La Trinidad, Benguet, a four- to five-hour drive away from Tinoc. When asked, the farmers were not sure how much these would sell. They estimated getting P30 per kilo of carrots.
While higher temperatures than they’re accustomed to initially impacted irrigation, they said the quantity of their produce had remained the same. What they’re sure of, however, was that prices were down again in La Trinidad because of oversupply.
The agriculture department had attributed this problem earlier this year to fewer buyers, which led to a deterioration in the quality of the unsold vegetables.
Meanwhile, Bambang, Nueva Vizcaya, where the bulk of Tinoc’s produce goes to, was almost three hours away. Trucks carrying Tinoc’s crops have to ply the Kiangan-Tinoc-Buguias national road to reach the trading hubs in Bambang and La Trinidad.
In Ifugao – more known to the public for Banaue’s picturesque rice terraces – vegetable gardens had sprouted as the roads were built. In fact, Tinoc is dubbed as the salad bowl of the province.
