Town YRequired Investments [Poverty Reduction Approach]
Total # of households 3,811Poverty incidence of families 67.70%Magnitude of Poor Families 2,580
If per capita poverty threshold is ~ P10,000 or about P800 per person per month, then monthly household poverty threshold for a family of 5 is about P 4,000.00 or an annual requirement of P48,000.00
Assume that these poor households on the average are only having 75% of the requirement [P4,000 * 75% x 12= P36,000]
Then they need an annual incremental income of 12,000.00
Multiply with the number of poor families = Total incremental income needed to raise poor families above the poverty line 30,960,564
Where will they get this? From what productive activities? How much investments are needed to set up income producting activities to allow households to earn this required incremental income? What support faciliries and activities will the LGU undertake

Strategies
STRATEGIES
1. localize quantification of potentials to locate the identified agri and forestry areas for development including other wealth creating sectors; maximize use of technology – GIS, dynamic databases
2. advocate for paradigm shift: productivity mindset
3. pursue innovative funding schemes and promote appropriate financing
STRATEGIES
4. review sharing of national wealth: consider handicapping options or reward schemes for those who can generate more local income, in which case a transparent and honest-to-goodness municipal income accounting mechanism should be put in place [right now, domestic production is only estimated at the regional level, we do not have access to provincial and municipal domestic production figures]
STRATEGIES
5. for sector-specific strategies:
Agriculture: • land consolidation• provision of key support infrastructure &
services – drip irrigation, seedling centers, certified seeds, mechanical dryers, organic fertilizer production sites,[go organic as a regional battle cry] silos, quedan centers [to ensure that farmers will not be forced to sell at low prices]and other common service facilities
STRATEGIES
5. for sector-specific strategies:
forestry: establishment of info system and trees tracking system, create a trees futures market, insurance fund for forestry
mining: collection and establishment of a sovereign fund to take care of restoration & other needs of the host communities
