Livestock and Poultry Production

• Livestock and poultry production has increased tremendously in the past years. This is partly due to the municipality’s climate and terrain which is ideal for livestock and poultry production. The land area devoted for agri-livestock production is 80 hectares or 0.27 percent of the total agricultural land.

• For the year 2006, the Office of the Municipal Agriculturist reported that there are 322,628 heads of livestocks and poultry raised in the municipality. Poultry has the most number of heads at 271,420 where 3,639 are layers, 17,852 are backyard, and 249,929 are commercial under contract growers scheme with different Agri-business firms such as RFM, Vitarich, and Swift followed by swine with 23,719 heads which 10,970 are backyard and a total of 15,113 are raised commercially, and cattle with 24,491 heads where 2,065 are backyard and a total of 22,426 heads fattened in the cattle farms of Montery and DEALCO.

• Supply of livestock in the municipality is insufficient due to shipment of livestock which are raised commercially to other parts of the country leaving the backyard raisers to support the local market. The municipality still depend on supplies coming from other areas in the province.

Home of the biggest pineapple plantation in the country, DOLE Philippines, a 12,000 hectare pineapple plantation, Polomolok is gaining the title of being the agro-industrial center and sub-urban residential development center.

Natural hot and cold spring abound at its foot. Natural springs are abundant within this area and provide free flowing water. Two of these springs have developed into natural resorts.It is splendidly gifted with pineapple products and processing, livestock resources (cattle, piggeries, meat packaging) furniture, asparagus and cut flowers, cotton ginnery, corn, vegetable and fruits.
Polomolok is currently pursuing major residential development as rapid economic activities are established that further stabilizes the ever growing economy.
