Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have statistics information you have requested. 

Currently, the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics, which holds all statistics data on staple agronomic crops, was not under the Department of Agriculture. It was currently managed by the Philippine Statistics Authority.

However, you may wish to contact the Philippine Statistics Authority thru their director Mr. Romeo S. Recide at (02) 462-6600 locals 839, 833 and 834.

For further assistance you may review the FAQ section of the eFOI site: https://www.foi.gov.ph/help.
