It is only 12,000 thousand hectares, of the estimated 40,000 thousand hectares arable land. or only 18,75%. Less than 1/5 of total arable land!! What happens to the rest of 80% (4/5) (Thats 12 million and 40 million hectares)
Much is still to be done regarding the cultivation of the rest of arable land. What is happening to the large DA budget? What is happening to talks about developing our agriculture?
And yet people are complaining about the land conversion Only roughly 20% of the arable land in the Philippines has been cultivated.

In 2018, the total land area used for agricultural crop cultivation in the Philippines was around 13.5 million hectares. In the previous year, the real gross domestic product growth of the agriculture sector was 3.9 percent.
