The Livestock Dispersal Livelihood Program will involve the raising of cattle, goats,
and poultry. The animals will be raised using modern and efficient production practices such
as proper feeding, vaccination, and disease control. The program will also promote the use of
natural and organic feeds to ensure the quality and safety of the products.

Labor Requirements:
The program will require 10 skilled workers to manage the livestock and 2 managers
to oversee the overall operations. The estimated salary expenses for the workers and
managers will be included in the budgetary breakdown.

 FISHERIES PROJECT PROPOSAL

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Name of the Project: Solar Fish Drying

Location: San Carlos City, Negros Occidental
Number of Heads/Area: 50 fisherfolk families
Estimated Budget: Php 2,000,000
Proponent: San Carlos City Fisherfolk Association (SCCFA)

II. RATIONALE

The fishery industry plays a crucial role in the economic development of the
Philippines. It provides employment opportunities, foreign exchange earnings, and research
development. In San Carlos City, Negros Occidental, the poverty incidence rate of families in
2018 was recorded at 17.3%, according to the Philippine Statistics Authority. The fishery
industry is one of the sectors that can help alleviate poverty in the city. However, many
fisherfolk in San Carlos City face challenges in post-harvest fisheries due to limited access to
proper drying facilities, which leads to lower-quality dried fish and lower incomes. This
project aims to address these challenges by introducing an alternative fish drying method
using solar dryers, which can improve the quality and quantity of dried fish production.

III. MARKET STUDY

Market Demand:
The demand for dried fish is high in San Carlos City and neighboring towns. With the
increasing number of tourists visiting the area, the demand for high-quality dried fish
products is expected to increase.

Market Supply:
There is a limited supply of high-quality dried fish in San Carlos City due to the lack
of proper drying facilities.
 Competitive Advantage:
The use of solar dryers in fish drying can produce high-quality dried fish products,
which can provide a competitive advantage over traditional drying methods.

IV. TECHNICAL STUDY

Cultural Practice:
The flow of the process in the overall operation will involve the collection of fresh
fish from the fisherfolk, cleaning and preparing the fish for drying, and drying the fish using
solar dryers. The solar dryers will be constructed and installed in a centralized location
accessible to all fisherfolk. The dried fish products will be sold in the local market or to
traders for export.

Labor Requirements:
The project will require a manager and six laborers to operate the solar dryers and
manage the drying process. The laborers will be provided with a fair salary and benefits.

Budgetary Breakdown:
The budgetary breakdown includes the construction and installation of solar dryers,
purchase of necessary equipment and supplies, labor costs, and other operational expenses.
The total cost of the project is estimated at Php 2,000,000.

Sales Forecast and Assumption:

The sales forecast is based on the current demand for dried fish products in the local
market and the potential increase in demand due to tourism. The sales forecast will be
reviewed and updated annually to reflect changes in market demand and other factors.
