Abstract. Vergara TID, Alejandria MC, Lustanas B. 2020. Review: Iloilo?s Balut Industry (Philippines)-An exploration of the environment, social organizations, and consumer demands. Asian J Agric 3: 41-51. The province of Iloilo has one of the highest numbers of small scale duck farms in the country. Its agricultural landscape has allowed the rise of farmers entering duck raising practices mainly along rice fields throughout the province. However, continuous interventions on the agricultural sector of Iloilo are directed at boosting economic growth. This paper provides a qualitative evaluation of the efficiency of current policies and implementation of rules and regulations on the duck and duck egg industry of the Province of Iloilo. Findings revealed the need to address issues on the production, distribution, and marketing of the duck and duck egg products of the province. Environmental conditions such as climate and water access, along with the role of social organizations, and impact of existing policies play a key role in the current trajectory of the Iloilo duck industry.

Abstract

Abstract. Tanielian A. 2020. Review: Market, capital, and foreign labor access for all Thai farmers. Asian J Agric 3: 41-59. A quantitative study of agricultural economic indicators for Thailand, its provinces, and seventeen other countries show Thailand's agriculture sector desperately needs assistance to lift farmers out of poverty and Thailand out of the middle-income trap. Data shows diminishing activity in the agricultural sector may be harming productivity and growth. Prices and yields plateau and fall as producer costs increase and farm incomes remain among the lowest. In 2006 and 2014, the military ousted two Shinawatra Prime Ministers amid corruption and misappropriation scandals relating to failed agricultural subsidy schemes that cost the government billions of dollars while failing to substantially improve the situations of millions of smallholder farmers throughout the Kingdom. Analysis of primary data and literature suggest Thai farmers lack sufficient access to labor, capital, and markets that would give them the resources to improve farming methods, hire short-term labor, and ultimately rise in socioeconomic status along with the rest of the population. Recommendations include a series of government-sponsored and joint public-private initiatives that organize farmers into unions and connect them with human, financial, scientific, market, and educational resources via a range of mobile applications.
