There’s also advocacy for the program itself and its different components to foster understanding, promote appreciations and generate support for the program. Special projects to support/assist important issues of the livestock industry will also be undertaken. 

Just as important as the domestic concern is the need to respond to international developments.   Imports of cheap, subsidized livestock and poultry products are of particular concerns.  Hence, the need for the availment of Safeguard Measures allowed by law to adequately protect the domestic industry.

The GMA Livestock Program also continuously involves itself in the review and discussion  of proposed terms and conditions in  bilateral and multilateral arrangements between the Philippines and other countries.
