The Philippines is now facing the worst food crisis in many years. Many farmers who are in rice cultivation in the rice terraces are now abandoning farming for more lucrative trades. An example is an Ifugao farmer who now poses for tourists¢ pictures with his colored g-string and feathered headdress with the rice terraces as background. He doesn’t till his own land but instead uses the money he got from tourist to buy cheap rice distributed by the government to poor communities. What a calamity?
