    Both agriculture and fisheries in the Philippines are experiencing several problems. For agriculture, farmland is being converted to other uses, farmers rely too heavily on chemicals, and irrigation funding is insufficient. For fisheries, overfishing, pollution, and destruction of habitats and mangroves are issues, leading to lower fish catches and incomes for fishermen. These problems are contributing to the decline of the agricultural sector and deterioration of marine resources in the Philippines.

    What are the different problems of agriculture (farming) and fisheries in the Philippines?

    Both agriculture and fisheries the Philippines are experiencing several problems. On the side of
    agriculture, problems are conversion of farmlands to recreational and entertainment grounds,
    reliance of the farmers to chemical-based fertilizers (pesticides) and insufficient funding for
    proper irrigation system. Such problems resulted to the declining situation of the agricultural
    sector of the country. While on the fisheries side, problems are the following: destruction and
    pollution of marine resources and habitats, mangrove forests destructions, siltation, and
    especially, overfishing. The aforementioned problems caused increase in flooding and
    deterioration on the value of fish catch which led to fishermen having low income.
