II. Project Background and Rationale
2.1 Statement of the problem and opportunities

The proportion of poor families in the province have decreased from 31.9% in
2009 to 21.7% in 2012, respectively, but it is still higher from the national figure of 20.5
in 2009. A total of 26,563 families are still below the poverty threshold, with only9,864
families graduating out of poverty from 2009 to 2012.

Each individual needs at least Php 18,390 a year so as not to be considered

poor based on the poverty threshold estimate for the province. A family of 5 in the
province needs at least Php 91,950 a year or Php 251,.92 a day to meet its basic needs.

Among the municipalities of Camarines Norte and as per municipal level small
area poverty estimates ranked 3rd in 2009 at 43.4% while Basud ranked 6th at 38.3%
poverty incidence among the twelve (12) municipalities of the province.

According to the Regional Development Plan, an economy that is driven

primarily by consumer spending which is always coupled with decreasing ration of
investment, was proven to be unsustainable in the long run. In this case, the present
administration had aggressively implement priority infrastructure projects such as access
road from point of production to the market, post-harvest facilities, water system,
irrigation system and others. These type of projects promote and generate more
investments towards a sustainable economic development and was proven to be the one
of the contributors to the remarkable economic accomplishment of the province. This
feasibility study is undertaken to the viability of the project in terms of improving the life
of the populace thereby transforming Camarines Norte into a net exporting economy and
in the process, maximize opportunity for employment generation of its people for
sustained economic growth and development.

2.2 Project Objectives

General Objective:

Consistent with the national thrusts and priorities, this project is aimed at
reducing poverty through provision of access infrastructure support facilities to
production, thus, increasing volume of investment from the private sector resulting to
sustainable economic development in the municipalities of Basud and Mercedes in
particular and in the province of Camarines Norte in general.

Specific Objectives

Specifically, the project aimed to :

1. Reduce average hauling and transport cost of produce brought to the

market by 20%;
 2. Reduce post-harvest losses from 8% to 3%

3.2 Analysis of Road and Transport System (without and with road improvement)

The road condition from Bgy. Pinagwarasan (….….Basud) to Mangcamagong

(Basud) connecting the Mercedes’ barangays of Matoogtoog, Hinipaan,
Masalongsalong, Pambuhan, Tarum, Colasi, Hamoraon, Lalawigan and Lanot hinder
 the development of these barangays. The aforementioned road segments/network are
very rugged, eroded and slippery during rainy days. It is accessible to any form of
vehicle but the daily operating maintenance cost is comparatively high due to poor
condition of road segment. These expenses are added cost to the farmers/fishermen in
terms of high transport cost of different commodities. Aside from the higher transport
cost of produce, heavy quality decline of crops was reported due to bumpy trips
coupled with long travel of 3 hours from Bgy. Lanot to Daet (central commercial center
in Camarines Norte). The lone exposure of perishable crops and coarse/uneven travel
have resulted to quality decline/deterioration resulting to lower prices/decrease
volume sold. Heavy expenses on hauling and transport in bringing their products to the
market are incurred by farmers and fishermen which redound to a decrease in farm
income and fishing income of both farmers and fishermen respectively.

Moreover, with the very poor road condition, the products could not be brought
immediately to the market. This result to at least _____ spoilage of produce per report
from farmers due to exposure to harsh environment and handling damage during
hauling. At normal condition, spoilage on coconut/copra and pineapple is estimated at
_______ %.

The following cost items are incurred by farmers in bringing produce to the
market in Daet.

Hauling/handling of Products:

During rainy days when Colasi river overflows, the road from Bgy. Colasi to Lanot is not
passable. Farmers usually hauled their crops by carabao drawn cart from their farm to pick-up point in
Colasi bgy. proper for pick-up by Public utility jeeps/trucks. Their hauling costs them 1 -2 pesos per kilo
e.g. for a sack of copra, the charge is 120 pesos since 1 sack of copra is 60 kilos. Rice on the other hand
with 50 kilos weight per sack is charged 100 pesos for hauling. Aside from hauling to the pick-up points
for land transport of crops, these are also hauled in various pick-up points for sea transport. They are
charged 1-2 pesos per sack/”kaing”. Farmers preferred land compared to sea transport due to its
cheaper charge and less handling. By sea transport, crops are transported to mangcamagong where they
are picked up by jeeps/trucks. In mangcamagong, they are again hauled to the pick-up point in
Camagong bgy. proper for pick-up by jeepneys or trucks. The hauling service fee is 10 to 20 pesos per
sack.

3.2.7 Analysis of how the proposed road facility will close in the gap in
infrastructure development within the area in terms of generated,
induced and diverted traffic.

Present Condition (Without the Project)

The poor condition of “Pinagwarasan to Lanot road segment has hindered the
development of 11 barangays: two barangays of Basud and nine (9) barangays of Mercedes,
Camarines Norte. Said road segment is very rugged, eroded, smooth (soily) with deep
potholes. Some segment of said road is flooded and very slippery during rainy days. Thus,
only a few public utility jeepneys (PUJ) are routing the place because of high vehicle
operating cost (VOC). This resulted to low frequency of trips, thus waiting time of
commuters is significantly high (1-1.5 Hrs). Moreover, because of the high demand for
service vehicles, high commuters fare and transport charges for crops are dictated by PUJ
operators. As such, farmers incurred higher transport cost of their crops brought to the
market. Long travel to commercial centers is experienced by commuters at 1-3 hours. The low
frequency of vehicles also increased waiting time of commuters who are going to Daet.
Vegetables and rootcrops quality declined when they are transported to the market due to
long trips and bumby roads, thus, can be sold for lower price (_____).
.
Moreover, with the very poor road condition, the produce could not be brought immediately
to the market. This result to at least 8 % spoilage of produce particularly pineapple per
report from farmers due to exposure to harsh environment and handling damage during
hauling. At normal condition, spoilage on coconut/copra and pineapple during transport is
estimated at 3 %.

WITH THE PROJECT:

The realization of the project will brought more benefit to the farmers of the eleven (11)
influenced barangays in terms of reduced transport cost of crops to the market from 75 %
reduction in hauling and handling cost, 5 % reduction in transport losses due to
 deterioration and quality decline of crops because of the bumpy and long travel from the
production area to market. Consequently, commuters waiting time will also reduce from 1.5
hour to 15 minutes, since, the frequency of PUJ routing the area will also increase.

D. Reduction in Hauling and handling Cost Incurred by Farmers During Rainy Days

Hauling of agricultural products particularly during rainy days is usually through carabao-
drawn cart to the pick-up point, then transported to Daet market by means of public utility
jeepney/truck. The hauling service fee is Php. 1.00 per kilo. Consequently, transport fare per
sack of copra from Bgy. Colasi to Daet is Php. 50.00.

With the project, the farmers will be able to save at least Php. 60.00 per sack (the amount
corresponding to the hauling cost) of copra brought to the Market. A sack of rice is charged

F. Easy and fast commuters’ travel to the commercial centers

The residents travel by foot from the interior sitios to the Barangay Proper to be able to access
basic social services and other amenities they need. With the realization of the proposed road sub-project,
the frequency of public utility jeepneys routing the area increases, thus, decreasing the waiting time spent
by commuters from 1 hours and 30 minutes to just 30 minutes. Commuters will have a fast travel to
commercial centers, schools, hospitals, government offices or churches at Basud or Daet proper. Access
of residents of the 11 influenced barangays to various amenities in Basud and Daet proper will also
improve, particularly 7,697 women, 319 High School students and at least 100 crops/fish traders in the
area.

4.2.3 Adjustment of Financial Values to Economic Terms

Provide a short write-up narrative/explanation for table (See Table____)

The economic value of materials and equipment are computed by adding the base cost (POW
shown Cost) and OCM. Here the tax and contractors profit are excluded since tax goes back to
society in the form of basic services while contractors profit returned to society in the form of
employment, thus, already benefited society. Considering them in the computation for economic cost will
be a double counting of benefit to society.

On the other hand, the economic value of unskilled labor is computed by using shadow wage
factor of 0.6. This is so, since the demand for unskilled labor is low compared to supply. There is a great
supply of unskilled labor compared to the demand for it, thus, a shadow wage factor less than 1.0.
Moreover, the shadow wage factor for skilled labor is 1.0, with great demand by the society. Foreign
exchange conversion to economic cost uses a conversion factor of 1.20. The value of imported goods
to society is greater than 1.0.

Foreign exchange conversion factor : 1.2

Skilled Labor shadow wage factor : 1.0
Unskilled labor shadow wage factor : 0.6
