From September 4 to October 25, the Philippine Statistics Authority will conduct the 2022 Census of Agriculture and Fisheries throughout the country to collect basic information from the country’s agricultural and fishery sectors.
Mapa added that the 2022 CAF is more than a mere counting and profiling exercise of the country’s agricultural farms and fisheries operations. Three provinces, namely Pangasinan, Bukidnon, and Iloilo, will have full coverage under the 2022 CAF because of their production volume and value in the country’s agriculture industry. On the other hand, PSA enumerators will also make their rounds in cities as urban farms and community gardens have become more abundant.
Moreover, the PSA also partnered with the Department of Science and Technology’s Advanced Science and Technology Institute to use AI to help with more arduous tasks like measuring the size of farms or parcels of land, among other uses.
