The Crop Diversification and Rice Alternatives Act would create a national program that encourages farmers to grow crops such as corn, cassava, sweet potato and legumes alongside rice, using a 30 % rice / 30 % other crops / 30 % water‑aquaculture / 10 % livestock‑housing layout. It funds the effort with ₱200 million, offers subsidies, credit, insurance and price guarantees, and sets up at least ten pilot sites that must report yearly on production, incomes and climate impact.
