A total of 150 projects supportive of the thrusts of the agri-business sector were monitored for 2016. As the year ended, 111 of these projects were completed, and the remaining 39 were in various stages of completion. Of the 39 ongoing projects, 5 projects were be-hind schedule, 31 were on-time and 3 were ahead of schedule as the year ended.

The sector attained an overall physical accomplishment rate of 90.12 percent, missing the 100 percent target by 9.88 percent. This was brought about by the 10.68 percent negative slippage incurred in the crops subsector. This is in spite of the overall physical accom-plishment rates in the subsectors on Livestock, and Science and Tech-nology at 104.37 and 104.09, respectively.

Among the major projects completed under this sector were the following:

National Stock Assessment Program, BFAR

Distribution of Fishing Gear/Paraphernalia, BFAR

Distribution of four wheel drive tractor, DA

Distribution of certified seeds, DA

Distribution of Vertical Dryer, DA

Establishment of Multiplier Farm and Tramline, DA

As for the overall financial status of the projects implemented under the agribusiness sector, ₱936.23 million were spent as the year ended. This is equivalent to 99.87 percent of the ₱937.45 million re-leases. The amount released comprised 87.61 percent of the CY 2016 programmed amount of ₱1.137 billion.

AGRIBUSINESS SECTOR

ENVIRONMENT SECTOR

All of the 35 projects enrolled under the Environment Sector were completed. Some of the projects completed by the DENR were the fol-lowing:

Maintenance and Protection of Established Plantation CY 2014, 2015 & 2016

Seedling Production/Procurement CY 2016 3

Plantation Establishment including Social Mobilization CY 2016

Provision of Technical Assistance in Integrated Coastal Management

Land Disposition - Patent Issuance (Residential Free Patent - RA100231)

The overall physical accomplishment rate in the Environment Sector reached 104.24 percent which is 4.24 percentage points above the end-of-year target. Projects under the subsectors on Green Envi-ronment and Climate Change Adaptation / Mitigation, namely the var-ious projects under the National Greening Program of the DENR and the Trainings/Seminar on Disaster Risk Reduction Management/ In-formation Dissemination conducted by the University of Northern Philippines, were the main contributors to the above-par physical ac-complishment of the Environment Sector.

In terms of financial status, funding support for the sector reached 99.43 percent. This is equivalent to total releases of ₱192.73 million out of the programmed amount of ₱ 193.28 million. In addi-tion, the sector generated employment totaling 2,500 man-days.

A total of 93 projects were monitored under the Social Devel-opment Sector for CY 2016. Forty-seven of the 93 projects were al-ready completed, and 46 projects were in various stages of comple-tion. Thirteen of the 46 ongoing projects were delayed, while 26 pro-jects were on-time and seven were ahead of schedule as the year end-ed.

In terms of physical status, the Social Development Sector in-curred a negative slippage of 11.09 percent. Overall physical accom-plishment only reached 88.91 percent, which is below the year-end target. This was mainly due to the low physical accomplishment of projects under the subsectors on Social Services and Community De-velopment, and Education and Manpower Development. These sub-sectors’ overall physical accomplishments fell short of the target by

13.51 and 5.57 percent, respectively. Projects completed under the sector, among others, were the following:

As of year’s end, the amount spent in the sector totaled ₱8.651 million. This was equivalent to 98.07 percent of the ₱8.821million re-leases. Total releases accounted for 91.51 percent of the ₱9.639 pro-grammed for the year.

Among the 6 sectors, the TIT sector incurred the highest nega-tive slippage at 19.01 percent attaining an overall physical accom-plishment rate of 80.99 percent. The main reason for the delay was the low accomplishment of the projects under the Tourism Subsector. The subsector incurred an overall negative slippage of 91.14 percent.

Ten projects were monitored under the TIT sector. Five pro-jects were completed as the year ended and the other five projects were in various stages of completion. Projects completed under the sector, among others, were the following:

Negosyo Center in La Union, Ilocos Sur, and Ilocos Norte, DTI

Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading (SETUP), DOST

The total amount programmed for the sector for 2016 was ₱32.639 million. Total releases reached ₱25.432 million. This was equivalent to a funding support of 77.92 percent.

The sector posted an overall physical accomplishment rate of 97.22 percent, missing its year-end target by 2.78 percent. The slip-page is due to the delayed implementation of 6 projects of the DPWH and one farm-to-market road of the DA.
