Impact of the KABSAKA project on productivity, employment and income distribution in Iloilo

Abstract

This study was conducted to find out the economic implications of the KABSAKA technology. Specifically, it aimed to examine the impact of the technology on resource productivity, employment, and income distribution in Sta. Barbara, Iloilo.

The mean levels of resources used, yield, and net income were tested for differences using the t- tests. The response function analysis was used to quantify the yield response to factors of production such as labor, rainfall, fertilizer, weedicide, insecticide, and seeds.
