June 2025 – MARINDUQUE. The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA)Marinduque Provincial Statistical Office (PSO) has successfully conducted the Second Quarter 2025 Livestock and Poultry Surveys for Households (LPS:H) and Establishments (LPS:E), from 23 – 29 June 2025.

The conduct of the 2025 LPS:E and LPS:H is in accordance with Republic Act (RA) No. 10625 (Philippine Statistical Act of 2013), which authorizes the PSA to prepare and conduct periodic surveys in various sectors of the economy.

The LPS:E, formerly known as the Commercial Livestock and Poultry Survey, aims to collect information on the supply and disposition of livestock and poultry commodities from livestock and poultry establishments across the country. The LPS:H, on the other hand, formerly known as the Backyard Livestock and Poultry Survey, aims to collect information on the inventory, supply, and disposition of livestock and poultry commodities at the household level. 

The data collected will be used by government planners, policymakers, and administrators in formulating social and economic development plans, policies, and programs. 

PSA-Marinduque PSO has hired and trained four Statistical Researchers (SRs) to conduct interviews with 240 sample households for LPS:H and nine sample establishments for LPS:E across the province. 

The PSA appeals to the sample households and establishments to cooperate in these efforts by providing truthful, complete, and accurate information to the SRs about their operations. The information gathered will ultimately serve as vital inputs for evidence-based planning and decision-making. 

The PSA assures respondents that the data provided will be treated with strict confidentiality and shall be considered PRIVILEGED COMMUNICATION, hence inadmissible in any proceeding, as provided for in Section 26 of R.A. No. 10625. The PSA also complies with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and assures that all collected personal information will be processed in accordance with the law and other related issuances.
