This document discusses the livestock and poultry industry in the Philippines. It identifies the major producing regions: Central Luzon for chickens, ducks, and duck eggs; CALABARZON for cows/cattle and chicken eggs; Central Visayas for goats; and Eastern Visayas for carabaos. The key problems facing the industry are high feed costs, smuggling, lack of government support, insufficient agricultural land, slow transfer of technology, and traditional farming methods. Proposed solutions include imposing tariffs on feed raw materials, increasing security to control imports, centralizing and streamlining government agencies, agricultural extension services, and modernization.
