Cagayan de Oro City (CDO) is a 1st class highly urbanized city in Northern Mindanao. It is the capital of the province of Misamis Oriental and serves as the regional center and business hub of Northern Mindanao (Region X). The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) ranked CDO as No. 5 most competitive and No. 1 most resilient city among Highly Urbanized Cities (HUCs) in the country during the 2018 competitive index evaluation. Having a fast-growing economy due to urbanization leads to an increase of agricultural products demand resulting to shortage of the city’s food supply however, the City Agricultural Development Plan for 2019-2022 stated that the local livestock and poultry industry continue to thrive despite the rapid urbanization trade, commercial growth, and technological concerns. This is because the raising of hogs and other livestock, even in backyard scale, has a ready demand from a growing domestic population and from numerous food establishments around the city. With this fast-growing economy, facilities such as public market, slaughterhouse and even backyard farms must be equipped with technology that will support their production and distribution of goods. Further, proper management of waste disposal and cleanliness are also important attribute for food safety. On the other hand, despite the growing economy of Cagayan de Oro there are still farmers from far flung areas of the city that were left from this development and many still uses traditional methods in farming which is laborious and prone to losses. As of January 2019, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) recorded 12.71 million head of pigs, 0.83 percent higher than the 12.60 million listed in 2018. The majority – about 65 percent – are farmed by small scale operators in backyard piggeries with less than 100 hogs. In reference to the PSA records, the poultry industry has a total chicken production of 477.11 thousand metric tons liveweight for April to June 2019. This was 3.1 percent higher compared with the previous year’s level of 462.70 thousand metric tons liveweight. With a rising population and a high demand on food production, our world is looking for solutions to increase food production. Small-scale farmers play an important role in the dilemma of feeding our world.
