NATIONAL AGRICULTURE POLICY
National Agricultural Policy (Background) Since 1984, three National Agricultural Policy (NAP) were formulated to develop the agricultural sector: Emphasis on NAP1 (1984-1991):- To develop the export oriented sector Current situation : abundant labor force  expansionary  economic policy adequate  land resources commodity/ plantation (palm oil/ cocoa)  infrastructure
1 st  National Agriculture Policy  (1984-1991) Focus on expansionary policy on export crop i.e. oil palm & cocoa Abundant land & adequate manpower Government  invested heavily on  infrastructure institutional building new land developments for oil palm & cocoa in-situ  development to resolve uneconomic farm size & low productivity among small holders 1st NAP
Emphasis of NAP 2 (1992-1997):  Increasing productivity, efficiency & competitiveness Increasing land areas for palm oil (plantation crop) Development of agro-based industry National Agricultural Policy (Background)
Greater focus on issues of productivity, efficiency & competitiveness Addressing the linkages with other economy sector 2 nd  National Agriculture Policy  (1992-1998) 2nd NAP Shifted from new area development to in-situ development
STRUCTURAL CHANGES (1992 – 1998) ECONOMY Acute labor shortage Increasing costs Competition for land & water resources  Economic & financial crisis  Inflation GLOBALISATION & LIBERALISATION Implementation of WTO, APEC, AFTA High import costs of food items
Emphasis of NAP 3 (1998-2010): Increasing the competitiveness of the agricultural sector Maximizing income through : Optimum utilization of resources  Increasing agriculture contribution to national GDP Increasing income of producers National Agricultural Policy (Background)
3rd NAP Further development of agro-food sub-sector as well as agro-based industries 1997 Asian Financial Crisis : Need to find alternative to  manufacturing sector  Agro-food sub-sector to be engine of growth 3 rd  National Agriculture Policy  (1998-2010)
SPECIFIC  OBJECTIVE OF NAP 3 Enhancing food security Increasing productivity & competitiveness of the sector Deepen linkages with other sectors Create new sources of growth Adopting sustainable development, utilization and management of natural resources
9 th  MP (2006-2010) TARGETS   To Increased Value Added Increased Production To Contain Import Bill Increase Self- Sufficiency Level
Increasing agricultural production including new sources of growth with greater private sector participation   Improving the service delivery system   POLICY  THRUST Expanding agro-based processing activities & product diversification   Strengthening marketing and global networking   Enhancing incomes of smallholders, farmers and fishermen
DEVELOPMENT OF NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL SECTOR  (ISSUES & CHALLENGES)
ISSUES INDUSTRY RESOURCE Small & uneconomic land holdings  * 65% paddy planters work on holding < 1 ha Competition for land resources * 6.36 million land; 83 % for estate Imported planting materials/ input * Vegetables: 95% seeds imported * Fruits: 40% seeds imported * Fish try: 25%imported FARMERS Ageing farmers : 39% age >55 years old Under employment * Paddy planters: 27 days/season Coconut smallholders: 16 days/ month Perception of youngsters generation engaging in agriculture sector is not attractive Inadequate labor force: 19,343 foreign workers brought in for period 2001-2003 PRIVATE SECTOR Agricultural is perceived as a poor man’s sector & profile not comparable with other sectors Low productivity of the sector 60% lesser than productivity in the manufacturing sector Need to enhance productivity OVERSEAS Trade liberalization: WTO, APEC & AFTA * Need to enhance competitiveness of agricultural products Asian financial crisis 1997 & devaluation of values of Malaysian Ringgit (RM) * Increasing cost imported agricultural inputs * Increasing of food import bills
CHALLENGES Transforming small scale agro-industry into commercial ventures Ensuring adequate, quality, safe and nutritious food at a reasonable price Reducing full dependency on labor force in the agricultural sector Ensuring sustainable development of the agricultural sector Increasing competitiveness of the national agricultural sector Strengthening the development of industry in agriculture and of industry in agriculture and to encourage private sector investment
