• more tolerant to heat,
disease and drought
• having higher fertility and
survival rate,
• having wider dietary
preference
• better carcass quality
compared with the grades
7. Commercialization of Philippine Native
Cattle for Optimum Production of Siquijor
Beef
Objectives
1. To quantitatively describe the socio-demographic profile of native
cattle raisers;
2. To develop native beef grading standard;
3. To develop native beef cuts; and
4. To develop native beef products and by products.

Purposive sampling was done
48 respondents
Six municipalities of Siquijor
Data gathered

Problems encountered related to cattle
production
18. Value Chain Analysis
Three pointers were discussed in the distribution area of the
value chain, as factors that stop the growth of the industry.
1. The inability of key players to transport meat cuts away
from Siquijor.
2. The lack of exit points in the province.
3. Low number of players engaging in distribution.
19. Value Chain Analysis
These were areas of improvements observed
in the distribution process of the Siquijor beef
cattle value chain.
1. Concentration of market information to
selected players in the chain
2. Inadequate options for new market entry of
the commodity in the province
