    During Ferdinand Marcos' regime, the Philippines was a major rice exporter. However, over time the country became a rice importer as Marcos' strict control over rice production knowledge eventually allowed other countries to enhance their own production. Additionally, droughts during Corazon Aquino's presidency in the late 1980s and 1990s reduced domestic supply and increased rice imports to make up for shortfalls.

    MANY DECADES AGO, THE PHILIPPINES WAS A RICE EXPORTER, BUT TODAY WE ARE A RICE

    IMPORTER. WHY DO YOU BELIEVED THI HAPPENED?

    - During Ferdinand Marcos Regime Philippines was a primarily a rice exporter, But why does it
    change? For my own opinion I think it change because of the changing administration, we know
    that Ferdinand Marcos was a cruel and strict President who don’t allow other countries to know
    how to facilitate and produce rice inside our country. But as time passed we had too much
    exposure and let other countries use the knowledge and enhanced it for better production. But
    according to Margarita Gonzalez, Vernise Tantuco/Rappler.com During Corazon Aquino’s term,
    the Asian financial crisis and droughts brought by El Niño raised rice prices, and from 1988 to
    1990, there was an increase in rice imports.
