Abstract
The country’s rice and corn stocks inventory are generated from three sectors, namely: household, commercial, and government rice stocks of National Food Authority (NFA). The household stocks are taken from the Palay and Corn Stocks Survey (PCSS) of the PSA, which covers farming and non-farming households nationwide. On the other hand, the commercial stocks are sourced from registered grains businessmen through the Commercial Stocks Survey (CSS), conducted by the NFA. Meanwhile, the government rice stocks are monitored from NFA warehouses/depositories. The PSA consolidates the stocks inventories from the three sectors which is disseminated monthly through a special release on Rice and Corn Stocks Inventory which is made available in the PSA website every 10th day of the month after the reference period.
The objective of the survey is to generate estimates on current stocks of rice and corn in farming and non-farming households.
