The 37th National Statistics Month (NSM) celebration officially commenced in Isabela on 01 October 2026 at the Amphitheatre, Isabela Provincial Capitol, Alibagu, City of Ilagan.
Anchored on the theme, โTuklas Pilipinas: Statistics as Beacon Towards Inclusive, Resilient, and Sustainable Tourism,โ the opening ceremony underscored the role of statistics as a beaconโa guiding light that helps communities navigate opportunities, address challenges, and chart pathways toward sustainable development.
For Isabela, where agriculture is deeply woven into the provinceโs identity and economy, statistics help illuminate the story behind its fields, farms, agricultural products, and farming communities. Beyond measuring production, agricultural data can help uncover opportunities to transform local resources and products into meaningful tourism experiences, support local enterprises, and promote inclusive growth.
The Opening Ceremony featured the 2023โ2025 Agricultural Statistics Provincial Dissemination Forum, which presented data on the volume and value of production of major agricultural commodities, including crops, poultry, livestock, and fisheries. The forum also brought together insights and development perspectives from the Isabela Tourism Office, Office of the Provincial Agriculturist, and Provincial Planning and Development Office, highlighting how agriculture, tourism, and development planning can come together in discovering and maximizing the provinceโs potential.
From the richness of Isabelaโs agricultural resources to the possibilities they hold for tourism and local development, the discussions emphasized the importance of reliable statistics in seeing where we are, understanding what we have, and guiding where we can go.
