goes to waste (Fig. 3). On a per capita basis, consumption fell from 33 kg in 1980 to only 24 kg in 1990 and 23 kg in 1998 (DA-AMAS). This is because the prices of locally sold banana have increased through the years. Table bananas found in supermarkets are mostly local (rejects) Cavendish and Lakatan (Gorrez, personal communication). Wastes 15% Fresh (food) 50% Processed into food product 35% amounted to only 18,280 t valued at US$ 20.83 M in 1996–2000 (Tables 6 and 7). Of the total volume of chips exported from 1999 to 2001, 38% went to Hongkong, 25% to Japan, 17% to Singapore, 11% to Netherlands, and 9% to Korea (Fig. 5). The Philippines enjoys export advantage over its ASEAN neighbors in terms of production and marketing because of its proximity to the major importing countries and technological advances in the production and handling systems. This is primarily because the infrastructure for export has long been established in Mindanao since the late 1960s. However, in most of the banana-growing areas especially the sites for Saba, Lakatan, and Latundan, the necessary infra-support system is still lacking and/or insufficient to become competitive. Fig. 3. Domestic utilization of banana products, 1991–2000. Mango The Philippines ranked fifth among the world’s top major suppliers of banana in 2000, with 3.56 M t or a share of 6.1% of the world production (FAO, 2000). India had the biggest share (18.9%), followed by Brazil (9.3%), China (8.9%), and Ecuador (8.6%). Indonesia occupied the sixth rank, while Thailand ranked ninth (Table 5). The major banana products being exported are fresh banana, chips/crackers, and catsup. The fresh bananas constitute the main bulk of our export representing almost 98% of the total volume exported. In 1996-2000, the average volume exported reached to about 1.31 M t valued at US$ 261 M (Tables 6 and 7). Figure 4 shows the major importing countries of the fresh banana in 1999-2000 where Japan occupies the biggest share (61%), followed by China (16%), Korea (8%), Taiwan (6%), and United Arab Emirates (UAE) (6%). On the other hand, the average exported chips/crackers Mango is grown practically all over the Philippines. It ranks second among the important fruit crops in terms of areas and production. In 2001, the total volume of production reached 879,737 t (Table 8). Several mango cultivars are grown in the country but the most important are ‘Carabao’ and ‘Pico.’ The Carabao mango, which accounts for 70% of total production, is recommended for both local and foreign markets. Other varieties such as ‘Pahutan’ and ’Katchamita’ are also grown in considerable quantity. In 2001, the Philippines ranked seventh among the largest mango producers, with 884,272 t or 4% of the total global output of 25.1 M t (Table 9). The largest mangoproducing country was India with 11.5 M (52%), followed by China with 3.21 M t (14%), Mexico with 1.46 M t (6.6%), Thailand with 1.35 M t (6.19%), Indonesia with .95 M t (4.3%), and Pakistan with .94 M t (4.3%). 10 .............................................................................................................
