Negros Occidental is located on the western side of Negros Island, the fourth largest island in the Philippines, with a total land area of 7,802.54 square kilometers (km2). However, if Bacolod City is included for geographical purposes, the province has an area of 7,965.21 km2.  The province is approximately 375 kilometers (kms) long from north to south. It is bounded by the Visayan Sea in the north, Panay Gulf on the west, Negros Oriental province, and Tañon Strait on the east and Sulu Sea on the south. Negros is basically volcanic, making its soil ideal for agriculture. Thus, 80% of all arable land on the island is cultivated.

The north and western parts of the province are largely composed of plains and gentle slopes. A mountain range lines in the eastern part of the province, on the basis of the border with the Negros Oriental. Kanlaon Volcano, which is partially located in Negros Oriental, rises to a height of 2,465 m (8,087 ft) and is the highest peak in the Visayas.

Negros Occidental is the second-most-populous province in the Visayas after Cebu, having the second-largest number of congressional districts and the 7th most-populous (4th if highly urbanized cities and independent component cities are included in the population of corresponding provinces) in the Philippines based on the 2015 Census.

Aside from palay and corn, sugarcane, coconut, banana, banana saba, and cassava are the top five other crops that are being produced in the province based on the volume of production.

According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) in 2018, sugarcane has the largest volume of production and yield in the Negros Occidental with 12,851,011.30 metric tons (mt) and 67.63 mt per hectare, respectively.

As of July 1, 2019, swine has 481,138 heads and considered the greatest number of production among all livestock. On the other hand, chicken, which is classified into the broiler, layer, and native/improved, has the greatest total number of volume of production yielding with 8,164,374 heads compared to duck which has only 470,350 heads both for the backyard and commercial purposes.

Fishing is likewise an industry where the province has remained focused. After all, 9 of its cities and 16 of its municipalities are located along the coastline and a great portion of the population depends on fishing for their livelihood.

The area for exploitation by this industry is huge, covering most of the coastal areas and the rich fishing grounds of the Visayan Sea on the north, Sulu Sea on the south, Tañon Strait on the east and Guimaras Strait and Panay Gulf at the west. These rich coastal areas and fishing grounds continue to be generous to the people of Negros Occidental. In 2019 data of PSA, products from deep-sea fishing, municipal marine and inland waters, and aquaculture reached more than 92 thousand metric tons, showing signs of increase in production especially in municipal water fishing. Production in fisheries in 2018 amounted to 90,485 metric tons.

Based on PSA in 2015, Negros Occidental has a total population of 2,497,261 individuals or 572,574 households.

In terms of poverty, Negros Occidental has an estimated incidence rate of 29.5% among families, according to the 2015 PSA last survey in 2015.

Proportion of families living in extreme poverty or those families who cannot meet the basic food needs and satisfy the nutritional requirements set by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI) for economically necessary and socially desirable physical activities was estimated at around 9.8 percent as of the first semester of 2015 compared to 9.4% in 2012. In other words, about nine out of 10 families in Region 6 were able to sustain their basic food needs during the first half of 2015.

In terms of the poverty incidence situation in Negros Occidental, the municipality of Moises Padilla has the highest poverty incidence while city of Bacolod has the lowest.

Project Profile
In 2019, SAAD is implemented seven livelihood projects to be provided for 160 individuals and 24 groups in one municipality of Negros Occidental. However, there is an over target on the individuals provided with interventions because during the planning stage, the assumption production area per beneficiary is one hectare. It turned out that the beneficiaries only have ¼ hectare each, thus, the inputs versus beneficiary ratio decreased which resulted to an increase in the number of beneficiaries.

The selection of municipality is based on PSA’s poverty rates in 2012. Based on PSA 2012, Don Salvador Benedicto has the highest poverty incidence which is 40.7%. Due to limited funds allocated in SAAD Region 6 that time, the Region decided to focus in catering only one municipality for the SAAD Program.

Seven livelihood projects related to rice, vegetable, banana, coffee, cacao, native chicken, goat, and corn production were implemented in Negros Occidental in 2019. The total projects cost Php 18,637,200.00.
