| description | This study attempts to describe and analyze social change
in an upland community in Quezon Province, Philippines, through
the analysis of changing agricultural systems and its effect on
social differentiation and stratification.
Specifically, the objectives of the study are as follows:
1. To analyze and compare the agricultural systems of an
upland community in the early 1970s and 1980s ; and
2. To discuss the allocation of income, power and
privileges as the agricultural systems of an upland
community change. The study was conducted in Barangay San Roque, Catanauan,
Quezon Province. Data were gathered through interviews by
using prepared interview schedules. These were analyzed using frequency counts and percentages.
During the early 1970s to 1980s, San Roque experienced
changing agricultural systems. Farming methods which were
formerly oriented towards subsistence production gradually gave
way to more commercial methods of production. Subsistence
farming with rice, corn and root crops decreased in importance
as farmers learned to cultivate commercial crops such as
bananas, coconut, fruit trees and coffee. An increasing number
of farmers began to practise mixed cropping with perennial
crops. |
