Department of Agriculture(DA)

Hi! I would like to request for information regarding:

1) The Volume of Fertilizer use by hectares in the Philippine by Region from 2008-2016

March 12, 2018

Dear Abdulhafiez,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Mar 11, 2018 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for The Volume of Fertilizer use by hectares in the Philippines.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested. However, you may wish to contact Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority at 920-0068 or 426-1572, or resubmit your request addressed to the correct agency on the eFOI portal at FPA Bldg., BAI Compound.

Currently, the management of FPA is not under the Department of Agriculture. If your concern is more on statistical data, the right agency for your request is the Philippine Statistics Authority. You may wish to visit their website at psa.gov.ph because they also uploaded fertilizer statistics from time-to-time.

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

We will complete the review and tell you the result within 30 calendar days from the date when we receive your review request.

If you are not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the right to appeal to the Office of the President under Administrative Order No. 22 (s. 2011).
