Manila Bulletin
|July 17 2025

Based on the latest forecast of the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the United Nations' (UN) Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the Philippines will be among the developing countries that are seen to substantially drive agricultural trade from 2025 to 2034.
