Quantitative restriction (QR) on rice import has been a longstanding instrument of the Philippine government that regulated the importation of rice, protected rice farmers and supported the drive for rice self-sufficiency of the country. However, with the pas-sage of the Republic Act No. 11203 or the Philippine rice trade liberalization law in February 2019, the QR was lifted and replaced with import tariffs instead. This policy shift can have far-reaching impacts not only to rice and agriculture but to the entire economy and to the global rice market as well - with important implications to the general welfare, nutrition and food security of the country. Hence, an ex-ante impact assessment study aimed at simulating, quantifying and understanding the effects of rice liberalization on farmers, consumers and various stakeholders can assist the government in proactively crafting and putting in place appropriate investment and policy interventions, while transitioning from QR and moving toward longer-term rice and food security.

Self-sufficiency is the objective of every agricultural country. The Philippines has initially targeted rice self-sufficiency in 2013. However, this time frame has been moved and the country is likely to import rice from neighboring countries. With the wake of some reports of growing rice consumption and population growth in the Philippines, challenges in rice production, and an escalating amount of rice imported, self-sufficiency in rice is certainly a cause of substantial concern of the government. Thus, this study determined the self-sufficiency in rice status of the Philippines by analyzing the fourteen (14) rice-producing regions in the Philippines from 1992 to 2012. Four statistical tool where used in determining the results of the analysis namely, Stochastic Frontier Analysis, Data Envelopment Analysis – Malmquist. Productivity Index, Envelopment Analysis - Slack based Measurement of Efficiency, and Logistic regression. Results of the analysis showed rejection of the hypotheses implying that 91) Input factors affect production, consumption, and importation; (2) Cordillera Autonomous Region and Central Visayas are the two most productive and efficient regions; and (3) Rice production and rice importation affect rice self-sufficiency positively, while rice consumption affects rice self-sufficiency negatively. Overall, the Philippines is not rice self-sufficient due to increasing gap between production and consumption, and escalating amount in importation of rice.

Tariffication of quantitative restrictions on rice imports was a key policy reform of the Duterte administration. This study reviews recent trends in the rice market, and assesses the poverty and distributional effects of rice tariffication using a computable general equilibrium model with microsimulation. Owing to the price difference between domestic prices in Philippines and exporting countries, imports of rice have surged under tariffication. As a result, domestic prices have fallen, though gross marketing margins have increased, amplifying the effect of the drop in retail prices on both wholesale prices and palay prices. The price and associated economic adjustments are expected to cause an increase in income poverty as conventionally measured. However, the increases are rather small, and would diminish over time. The value of the income loss suffered by the poor is far below what the amount provided by law to address problems in the rice economy with tariffication.

In March 2019, the government of the Philippines promulgated a bill called the Rice Tariffication Law (RTL). It has dramatically changed the policy landscape in the rice sector and generated heated debates on how it would affect food security and poverty. This study explores the welfare effects of this reform across different types of households. We rely on the IRRI Global Rice Model to simulate the domestic price effects of the reform (Balié and Valera, 2020) and the Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES) to study the welfare impact of these price changes. Our results show that the RTL reduces consumer and producer rice prices, which affects households on the production and the consumption sides. Because a large majority of households are net buyers of rice and the policy reform reduces rice prices, most households benefit from the reform. Overall, the effects of the reform on poverty are beneficial. The poorest quintiles are positively affected, while the richest quintiles are unaffected or slightly worse-off. Spatially, the poorest regions also benefit the most. However, the rice growers who are net sellers are negatively impacted. The government should seek to mitigate the negative effects on non-competitive rice growers. Investments in public goods and services are a promising option to ease the emergence of on-farm and off-farm businesses as more profitable alternatives to rice production.

The recent escalation of world food prices – particularly for cereals - prompted mass public indignation and demonstrations in many countries, from the price of tortilla flour in Mexico to that of rice in the Philippines and pasta in Italy. The crisis has important implications for future government trade and food security policies, as countries re-evaluate their reliance on potentially more volatile world markets to augment domestic supplies of staple foods. This book examines how government policies caused and responded to soaring world prices in the particular case of rice, which is the world's most important source of calories for the poor. Comparable case studies of policy reactions in different countries, principally across Asia, but also including the USA, provide the understanding necessary to evaluate the impact of trade policy on the food security of poor farmers and consumers. They also provide important insights into the concerns of developing countries that are relevant for future international trade negotiations in key agricultural commodities. As a result, more appropriate policies can be put in place to ensure more stable food supplies in the future. Published with the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Organization of the United Nations

CONTEXT: Despite being a large rice producer for several years, the Philippines has suffered a rice shortage; hence, the shortage is supplemented by imported rice. To cater to the needs of every Filipino for rice, the country has been heavily dependent on imported rice, and recently, it has been one of the top rice importers in the whole world. Several policies were imposed to increase production; however, supply-centered policies were not enough to solve this problem. A deep understanding of the food system is vital to adequately address the problem and explore potential policies that can be implemented. OBJECTIVE: This research aims to address this growing problem; this paper studies the interactions between rice production and consumption and the several factors that involve changes to production and consumption. These factors involving rice production and consumption have dynamic and complex behavior in the rice production system. There are currently several studies about the rice status in the Philippines; however, none tackles the country's rice-food system. METHODS: This study utilized system dynamics modeling to make scenarios on the country's rice food system and simulate the realistic values of rice production and consumption based on the PSA data. The importance of the system dynamics is to see the system's holistic view. It can be used to identify possible study areas that significantly impact the system, in this case, rice production and consumption in the Philippines. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Results showed that production and consumption interventions are crucial to improving the Philippines' self-sufficiency and import-dependency ratio. Increasing the harvested area has a more significant effect on improving the self-sufficiency ratio. It is necessary to appropriately invest and plan for better use of the available arable land for rice farming and instruct the agricultural community to improve the usage of agricultural land to increase their rice production. Besides the production increase, consumption reduction is another way to attain self-sufficiency in rice. Subsequently, people should be educated and instructed in rice consumption behavior and avoid excessive rice consumption. SIGNIFICANCE: This research can serve a purpose in studying potential rice substitutes to achieve rice sufficiency since reducing rice consumption per capita significantly affects the rice self-sufficiency ratio in the country. As a whole, this study can evaluate and demonstrate the application of various possible scenarios, and this can be a helpful decision support tool as the Philippines moves toward achieving rice self-sufficiency in the future.
