Typhoons trim abaca output
The Freeman
|December 01, 2025
Local abaca production has dropped by over five percent according to latest industry data, with the downturn largely attributed to widespread typhoon damage that affected key farming areas across the country.
-
Association of Abaca Pulp Manufacturers Inc. (APMI) executive director Aurora Peralta told The STAR that this is based on production data as of September, which should account for nearly 70 percent of the expected output this year.
“It’s down more or less 5.3 percent compared to production of 2024,” Peralta said in a phone interview.
Over the long term, she added, production has fallen by 24.5 percent compared with the 57,000 metric tons recorded in 2014.
