1990-2009 annual data for Coffee production from Crops Production Survey (CrPS)

Requested from PSA by M. Rallonza at 12:47 PM on May 06, 2022.
Purpose: Graduate research
Date of Coverage: 01/01/1990 - 01/01/2010
Tracking no: #PSA-936822240799

Rallonza 12:47 PM, May 06, 2022 

Good day, 

I am Miguel Rallonza and I am currently doing research on Philippine coffee. 

I am looking for production statistics from 1990 to 2020 on coffee, but the data available on openstat is only from 2010 to 2020. 

According to the footnotes of that table, the 1990-2009 annual data are still available in Crops Statistics Division (CSD) so I washoping to be able to get access to those. 

Hoping for you help in this matter, thank you very much.

Good afternoon, 

I am going through the data presented in Crops Statistics of the Philippines as well as the Selected Statistics on Agriculture and they are giving different numbers for the same crop years. 

For example, the Selected Statistics on Agriculture gives a production of 134,100mt for 1991 while Crops Statistics of the Philippines reports production of 125,659mt for the same year. 

I am just wondering if there is any reason for the discrepancy. And if ever, which data source is deemed to be more realiable. 

Hoping for your guidance, thank you very much.
