The Department of Agriculture (DA), as chair of the Task Group on Food Security (TGFS), recently got the nod of the Inter-agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) to pursue its Food Security Development Framework (FSDF) as it leads the country\u2019s agriculture sector towards the \u2018new normal\u2019 era.<\/p>\n
Agriculture Secretary William Dar said \u201cthe framework aims to provide the overall vision and high-level goals for the sector to attain in the immediate and short-term. It focuses on five objectives of food production, namely: availability, accessibility, affordability, price stability, and food safety.\u201d<\/p>\n
In view of the COVID-19 pandemic, the FSDF identifies strategic areas for each TGFS member-department to focus on in the next six months and onto 2021.<\/p>\n
Chaired by the DA, the TGFS is currently composed of 20 national departments and agencies, to name a few: the departments of trade and industry (DTI), interior and local government (DILG), social welfare and development (DSWD), agrarian reform (DAR), environment and natural resources (DENR), budget and management (DBM), education (DepEd), science and technology (DOST), energy (DOE), and National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).<\/p>\n
\u201cTo attain the overall vision of a food-secure and resilient Philippines with prosperous farmers and fishers, we will operate on five core strategies on farm consolidation, modernization, industrialization, export promotion, and infrastructure development. Each member-agency of the TGFS will implement these based on their mandate,\u201d Secretary Dar said.<\/p>\n
He added that they will put a premium on inter-agency resource complementation and coordination through the TGFS cross-functional sub-groups to expand the government service reach and time period.<\/p>\n
At present, the TGFS has four sub-groups on: food resiliency, energy, food value chain and logistics, and water.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe expect these sub-groups to work in harmony so that we could maximize our resources in reaching out to more beneficiaries as we go through our planning and operations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe concepts we are using incorporate the eight paradigms of the \u2018new thinking for agriculture\u2019 that we introduced early on, aimed at modernizing the agriculture sector, increasing productivity and profit and, mainstreaming smallholder farmers and fisherfolk in the food supply chain,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Upon assuming the DA post, in August last year, he introduced the \u2018eight paradigms\u2019 in agriculture that include broad strokes on intensive crop diversification, farm clustering and inclusive agribusiness, science-based farming, soil health and water management, integrated post-harvest processing, and value chain integration.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the food security development framework outlines the national government\u2019s immediate action points and \u2018rebound\u2019 mechanisms, we will strengthen partnerships with local government units, farmers\u2019 groups and cooperatives, agricultural state universities and colleges, and the private sector. Also, we will localize project management and establish responsive feedback at ground-level to capacitate the underserved and vulnerable communities, at all times,\u201d Dar added.<\/p>\n
Finally, the TGFS will outline an operational plan that puts all concepts into specific programs, projects, and activities that translate into action the Duterte government\u2019s response to address the disruptions and challenges, including inefficiencies in the supply chain, losses in incomes and livelihood opportunities, and health risks due to the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
\u201cTogether, we can do this. Together, we will act, win, and heal as one,\u201d the DA chief concluded. ### (Myriam Layaoen, DA StratComms)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Author: DA Communications Group | 8 May 2020 The Department of Agriculture (DA), as chair of the Task Group on Food Security (TGFS), recently got the nod of the Inter-agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) to pursue its Food Security Development Framework (FSDF) as it leads the country\u2019s agriculture continue reading…<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":13703,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[520,521,523,519,518,517,490,522,516],"class_list":["post-13702","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-accessibility","tag-affordability","tag-and-food-safety","tag-availability","tag-food-security-development-framework","tag-iatf","tag-new-normal","tag-price-stability","tag-task-group-on-food-security"],"yoast_head":"\nIATF okays food security development framework (repost) -
