Geographically, Tarlac is situated in the Center of the Central Plains of Luzon, lying between 15°16’19” and 15°40’41” north latitude, and 120°20’26” and 120°44’6” east longitude. Tarlac is landlocked by Pangasinan in the north, Nueva Ecija in the East, Pampanga in the south and Zambales in the west. As a first class province, Tarlac has a total land area of 305,345 hectares. This is 16.75% of Region III’s total land area, and 1% of the country’s. 511 barangays constitute 17 municipalities and the capital city of Tarlac. These municipalities are Anao, Camiling, Mayantoc, Moncada, Paniqui, Pura, Ramos, San Clemente, San Manuel, and Sta. Ignacia, Gerona, San Jose, Tarlac and Victoria, Bamban, Capas, Concepcion and La Paz (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). Demographics Tarlac has become a more populated province in the past decade. Between the years 2007 to 2010, the annual population growth rate of Tarlac is at an average of 1.76%. Given that this growth rate will continue, the province’s population is expected to double in 40 years. Note that the population growth is a direct consequence of natural increases and migration. As of the 2010 survey results, the population count of Tarlac province is at 1, 273, 240. The sex ratio is 103 males for every 100 females. The number of households is currently at 280,382, with 83,724 households owning land. Tarlac City stands Provincial Government of Tarlac 1 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) to be the most populous municipality, while Anao is the least populous in the province (National Statistics Office, 2013). Due to the population growth experienced, Tarlac is faced with consequential requirements. The province should be able to meet the demands for food security and access to potable water, utilities, and waste disposal, transportation and access; build additional housing and social infrastructure such as schools and health facilities like hospitals, clinics, rural health units; and provide economic opportunities to the population in terms of occupational opportunities, sources of livelihood and business ventures. Urbanization Pattern Tarlac is positioned as an agro-industrial growth area. The province is located in close proximity to major development centers in the region like Pampanga and Clark. Urbanization in Tarlac has been occurring at a rapid rate. As an urban and major trade center, the province also serves as an interregional distribution and industrial hub as it lies across two super regions. The Luzon Urban Beltway, the first super region, considers Region III to be a major transshipment and logistics hub in the Asia Pacific. Bamban, Capas, Concepcion, La Paz and Tarlac City lie along this Beltway. The North Luzon Agribusiness Quadrangle (NLAQ), the second super region, targets the growth potentials for agricultural activity and food production for Luzon and North Asia in terms of agricultural exports and eco-tourism. 13 municipalities of Tarlac form part of the NLAQ region. The Subic-Clark Alliance for Development (SCAD) positions the region as the logistics hub in Asia Pacific. Tarlac City, Bamban, Capas, and Concepcion lie along the SCAD Corridor (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010) Tarlac City has already been classified a Small City (Primary Urban Center A) with all the new facilities and services available in the locality over Provincial Government of Tarlac 2 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) the last 13 years. Levels in trading and commercial activities are also increased within the province through business districts in municipalities, development of malls and other major establishments, concreting of roads in identified barangays, and extending loans to small vendors and businesses. Camiling, Paniqui, Capas, and Concepcion are categorized to be Large Towns. Moncada, Victoria, Sta. Ignacia, La Paz, Gerona, San Jose, Mayantoc and Bamban are Medium Towns. San Manuel, Anao, San Clemente, Ramos and Pura are Small Towns. With the positioning of Tarlac as a strategic hub with networks of roads providing accessibility to the province, investments and infrastructure are underway. Along with this progress come traffic congestions, increased industrial and housing pollution, flooding, growth in population, and uncontrolled usage of land resources, misuse of natural resources and destruction of habitats. Implementing traffic transportation, road and traffic policies and enforcing strict environmental laws and land policies must address these concerns(UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). Poverty Poverty stands to be a major social development issue in Tarlac. There is a high prevalence of poverty and hunger and a very wide economic divide between the very rich and the very poor (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). According to the City and Municipal-level Small Area Poverty Estimates by the National Statistical Coordination Board, the highest poverty incidence is in the municipality of San Jose at 32.1%. This is followed by Mayantoc (28.3%), Sta. Ignacia (21.8%), Victoria (20.2%) and San Clemente (18.2%). These municipalities are largely agricultural. The lowest poverty incidences occur in Tarlac City (8.7%), Bamban (10.6%), Paniqui (12.8%), Capas (13.2%) and Concepcion (13.5%). These municipalities Provincial Government of Tarlac 3 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) have a lot of economic activities and are rather more urbanized (National Statistical Coordination Board, 2009). The table below details the poverty incidence in the province. Table 1 Poverty Incidence Estimates for Tarlac Province (National Statistical Coordination Board, 2009) City/Municipality Anao Bamban Camiling Capas Concepcion Gerona La Paz Mayantoc Moncada Paniqui Pura Ramos San Clemente San Jose San Manuel Sta.

The western portion of Tarlac is hilly to mountainous, while the eastern portion consists of flatlands. Natural resources and forest products are abundant in the province. Resources like coal, iron, vegetables, fruits, log fires, sand, rocks, livestock and forest animals are found here. The province has a major thrust in the provision of adequate and accessible space for sustainable food production, forest and mineral resources. Provincial Government of Tarlac 4 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) There are a number of areas that are constrained environmentally. These land areasare naturally prone to hazards, causing negative effects to man and the environment. Severe erosion must be addressed in the municipalities of Capas, Sta. Ignacia, Mayantoc, Tarlac City, Bamban and San Jose. There are also areas that are subject to the volcanic hazards of Mt. Pinatubo. Concepcion, Capas, Bamban, Tarlac City, Gerona and Paniqui still have lahar deposits in their agricultural lands and riverbanks. During rains, floods are prone in the areas of La Paz, Victoria, Concepcion, Gerona, Paniqui, Camiling, San Clemente and Tarlac City. San Manuel, Pura, Ramos, Anao, Gerona, Paniqui, Concepcion, Moncada and Tarlac City are areas that are prone to liquefaction. Climate The Coronas Classification of Philippine Climate categorizes the province of Tarlac under Type 1 climate, which has two pronounced seasons: Dry from December to April, and Wet from May to November. The main atmospheric systems controlling rainfall in the area are the southwest monsoon from June to September and northeast monsoon from December to February. The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and Local Thermal Convection also contribute significantly to the total annual rainfall especially during summer (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). Land Dominantly an agricultural economy, Tarlac boasts of a total land area of 305, 345 hectares, comprising 16.75% of the total land area of Region III and 1.0% the nation’s land area (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). Table 2 below lists the provincial land area per municipality.

There is a thrust towards agriculture and agriprocessing and fishery productivity. This includes the enhancement of production methods, thereby linking such to food processing and marketing support facilities. These activities will be spread throughout the province via Provincial Government of Tarlac 13 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) clustering of the activities and facility location, relative to a particular agricultural produce (UP Planning and Development Research Foundation, Inc., 2010). The following gives a more detailed description of Tarlac’s provincial four development areas: Table 9 Four Development Areas for Tarlac Province (Tarlac Investment Promotion Plan, 2013) AgricultureAgri-processing San Manuel Anao Ramos Pura Moncada Paniqui Gerona Camiling Mayantoc Santa Ignacia Eco-tourism Circuit San Clemente Camiling Mayantoc San Jose Capas Bamban Tarlac City Distribution and Logistics hub/ Agri-processing Tarlac City Capas Bamban Concepcion La Paz Victoria Urban Services Tarlac City Camiling Paniqui Capas Concepcion The following table draws a more concrete picture of the targeted projects for Tarlac Province along with the preferred areas for investment: Table 10 Investment Projects and Preferred Areas, Province of Tarlac (Tarlac Investment Promotion Plan, 2013) Priority Sector A.

To sustain good governance through a provincial government bureaucracy that is efficient, productive and responsive to the development needs of the local constituency. Priority Commodity Chains Development Provincial Government of Tarlac 16 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) The PRDP prioritizes commodities in each region and province. This is to ensure that the project is aligned with both provincial and national goals. The priority commodities of Tarlac are listed below: Sweetpotato Goat Onion Okra Aromatic/Pigmented Rice Mango Mungbeans Commodity Value Chain 1: Sweetpotato A. Commodity Profile Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.), a bio-efficient crop grown for its edible roots, belongs to the family Convolvulacea (Morning Glory). It originated in or near northwestern South America around 8000-6000 B.C. Guatemala, Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru have the greatest diversity in sweetpotato germplasm. Secondary centers of genetic variability are in Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and parts of Africa. Sweetpotato is locally known as “kamote.” Sweetpotato roots come in various shades and colors--- from white, cream, yellow, golden orange to purple. The flesh color of the sweetpotato is said to be directly related to its beta-carotene content. Beta-carotene in orange-fleshed sweetpotato is something that the human body can use to produce vitamin A, thus, calling it, “Provitamin A.” The purple-fleshed sweetpotatoes have the highest antioxidant activity (activity protecting cells against the effects of free radicals – damage due to oxygen – such as heart disease and cancer) among any other sweetpotatoes. Also, the skin is found to have the highest antioxidant Provincial Government of Tarlac 17 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) activity in any other part of the plant. The more common varieties in Luzon A Cluster are the cream to yellow fleshed and those with reddish to purple skin.

In the Philippines, there are thirty-two sweetpotato varieties developed by the National Seed Industry Council (NSIC) and Philippine Seed Board (PSB) that are recommended for local production. The variety widely planted in the Luzon A Cluster is the Super Bureau (VSP6). Super Bureau is high yielding with a technical yield of 20 to 25 MT per hectare. It has a high dry matter content of 32.90%. Sweetpotato roots with high dry matter content are highly suitable for cooking. They do not easily break when boiled or when made into sweetpotato skewers or kamote cue. Farmers also plant the Taiwan variety, which is used for Kamote Fries (substitute of the Potato French Fries). The leaves, tops, and roots of the sweetpotato are largely utilized as either food or feed. The heart shaped leaves are used as vegetables and supplemental Provincial Government of Tarlac 18 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) feed to hogs, cattle, and other ruminants. More products, however, can be made from the roots than the leaves and, as such, would be the focus of the value chain analysis. Products from the sweetpotato storage roots have greater value as these require more complex value-added activities. Sweetpotato roots are utilized as food, feed, and raw materials for industrial products. Figure 2 Varieties of Sweetpotato Planted in Luzon A Cluster Figure 3 Sweetpotato-based Processed Food Products in Central Luzon Provincial Government of Tarlac 19 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) The crop is most often consumed boiled, fried, or roasted in fresh form. It is consumed both as a snack food and as a supplemental or alternative staple food in lieu of rice. To date, the most dominant users of sweetpotato are the snack food subsector and households for the preparation of various traditional Filipino desserts and dishes such as the “pinakbet”. The most popular snack made of sweetpotato is the “kamote cue” (sliced camote dipped in brown sugar, fried in oil, and sold in bamboo skewers). The camote cue is usually consumed as midafternoon snacks. It is sold via street vendors, school canteens, and restaurants. It is also being offered as an alternative to potato French fries in some fastfood establishments and restaurants such as BonChon Chicken and Max’s Fried Chicken. BonChon Chicken is said to be using imported sweetpotato. Sweetpotato is acquiring an increased role in rural development as raw material for many industrial applications. The most important industrial uses of sweetpotato are as source of energy in animal diets in the feed industry, for the starch industry, and for the production of ethanol. Provincial Government of Tarlac 20 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) Table 13 Sweetpotato By-Products for Industrial Use Product Chips and Granules Starch Ethanol Description Undersize and oversize sweetpotatoes are chipped into thin slices not exceeding 1.5 cm thick and 10 cm long. The chips are then further processed into granules. The chips and granules are used by feed mills as alternative or substitute to corn. Production of dried chips and granules is undertaken by cooperatives in Pampanga and Tarlac. Comment: only chips for Tarlac, nit granulated. Carbohydrates generally make up between 80 to 90 % of the dry weight of sweetpotato roots. The sweetpotato yields an important starch, which is used as a food starch in noodles and technically for sizing textiles and papers, for the manufacture of adhesives and in laundries. In the mid-1990s, Central Luzon had three starch plants with a combined capacity of 130 tons of sweetpotato roots per days. The factories required roots with high starch content, and only accepted two cultivars meeting this requirement – Bureau and Super Bureau. By 1998, it was estimated that at least 80% of total area for sweetpotato production was devoted to these two varieties. Soon after the sweetpotato starch industry in Central Luzon took off, a major disease, locally known as kulot and caused by a virus complex, occurred and caused crop loss of as high as 100%. Unfortunately, the high starch varieties were highly susceptible to the disease, forcing farmers to abandon their sweetpotato fields as early as two weeks after planting when the symptoms appear. By the late 1990s, the starch factories could no longer sustain operations due to the inadequate supply of sweetpotato roots. Key factors that plagued the short-lived starch industry in Central Luzon were: i) the high disease incidence; ii) lack of alternative high-starch varieties with low susceptibility; and iii) problems in the marketing agreement between farmers and the factories (Campilan, UPWARD Program). Comment: there were two starch plants operating in the 90s NOT in Central Luzon but in Pangasinan Ethanol is produced by fermenting and distilling sweetpotato. Ethanol has various industrial uses: It can be mixed with petrol or used on its own as a transport fuel. It can also be used as a base for alcoholic beverages. Lastly, ethanol can be utilized as industrial alcohol which is important in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. There are no existing initiatives in ethanol production in Luzon A Cluster. China uses both cassava and sweetpotato in its ethanol production. Provincial Government of Tarlac 21 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) B. Production Trends World Production All around the world, sweetpotato is being produced in many countries as supported by production data in Table 14. World production of sweetpotato increased from 104,146,000 MT in 2009 to 110,746,000 MT in 2013. The areas cultivated to sweetpotato decreased slightly from 8,365,230 hectares in 2009 to 8,240,970 hectares in 2013. The increase in production volume between 2009 and 2013 was primarily due to increase in farm productivity, from 12.45 MT in 2009 to 13.44 MT in 2013. Sweetpotato is produced in about 116 countries. Asia accounts for about 78.38% of the world production in 2013. With 78,875,000 MT of production in 2013, China remained the largest producer of sweetpotato, accounting for 71% of world production and 91% of the output from Asian countries.

Majority of the farmer growers past through the traders and only few farmers/growers directly deliver their products to the wholesaler and retailer. Figure 6 Value Chain Map for Feeds Provincial Government of Tarlac 24 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) Sweetpotato is acquiring an increased role in rural development as raw material for many industrial applications. The most important industrial use of sweetpotato is as a source of energy in animal diets in the feed industry. With the increasing price of yellow corn as main source of raw materials in the feed formulation, the feed millers find alternative raw materials for feeds production. One commodity identified by feed millers is the sweetpotato. To date, only two cooperatives in Central Luzon have existing marketing contracts or purchase orders with San Miguel Foods Incorporated and CP group of Companies These cooperatives are Sapang PMPC of Moncada, Tarlac & Lambac MPC of Guagua, Pampanga. Domestic Production Under the Philippine Food Staples Self-sufficiency Roadmap (FSSR) 2011– 2016 that aims to achieve rice self-sufficiency by 2013 in the country, sweetpotato plays a major role in realizing this goal. Strategies to solve the food scarcity issue in the country by managing rice consumption include increasing food staple supply by 3.5 percent annually and making these crops affordable and available to everyone (Official Gazette, 2011). Provincial Government of Tarlac 25 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) In terms of production volume, Eastern Visayas occupies the top spot, followed by Bicol Region & Western Visayas. Region 3 Central Luzon ranks 7th in terms of production area, contributing 6% of the total volume of sweetpotato produced in the country in 2012, as shown in Table 15. In terms of area, however, Eastern Visayas has the widest area while Central Luzon ranks 5th, accounting for about 7% in the total area for sweetpotato in the Philippines.

Provincial Government of Tarlac 27 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) Alongside commercial production are semi-commercial and subsistence systems similar to most of the other sweetpotato-growing areas of the country. There are at least 5,600 sweetpotato producers in the region. Sweetpotato is grown after rice in a season that also grows corn and other vegetables in sandy loam soils. Per BAS data, Tarlac province is number one in terms of volume of production and area planted. Although the trend in area production declines from 2008 to 2012, it appears that Tarlac Province maintains its rank in years both in area and volume of production, contributing 68% of the Region’s sweetpotato production in 2012 and accounting for at least 74% of the production area in the Region, for the same year.

Investment Plan The sweetpotato value chain helps identify the segments that require intervention or assistance. The value chain analysis will guide the PLGU/LGU planner and the National Government in prioritizing the constraints and interventions in the value chain. This is to increase the competitiveness of the industry and promote inclusiveness to the players of the value chain. The Provincial Government of Tarlac then prioritizes the gaps/constraints and strategizes on where to establish the projects. Such strategies will address the 1The municipality of Mayantoc is the sole producer of clean planting materials in the province. One of the enterprises identified is the establishment of a nursery and net houses for clean planting materials. Hence, it is positioned as a municipality essential for inclusion in the development of interventions for sweetpotato. Other neighboring municipalities that do not commercially produce sweetpotatoes but serve as very good locations as sources of clean planting materials are San Jose and Santa Ignacia. Provincial Government of Tarlac 30 Philippine Rural Development Project Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) gaps and contribute to inclusive growth, making the province more competitive in the sweetpotato industry. The province prioritizes the following interventions: The establishment of postharvest processing facilities with mobile chipping machine to address the problems of lack of postharvest processing facilities with storage, packing house and limited mobile chipping machines in the remote production areas; The limited supply of quality clean planting materials (CPM) all year round; The improvement of farm-to-market road access in the production areas to minimize transaction cost and reduce travel time and to provide greater road accessibility all year round; The upgrading and establishment of tissue culture laboratory to support the expansion areas and minimize the incidence of pest and diseases of sweetpotato. Such interventions and aid are geared towards boosting agricultural development and income-increase for the rural poor. The enumerated interventions are aligned with the developmental goals and priority programs of the Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Plan (AFMP) of Region III, as well as that of the provincial goals of Tarlac. The Investment Plan for Tarlac Province is supported by the Value Chain Analysis’ segmentation and key gaps/constraints.
