A number of interested farmers in Iloilo are signing up for the planting of black pepper using kapok as standard support tree. Some farms in Janiuay are scheduled for field monitoring on its suitability. In general, it is most highly recommended that the area should be flood free and avoid planting of crops identified as host of Phytophthora spp. such as hot pepper and solaneceous crops. Rainfed and upland areas of Iloilo are the potential anf ideal areas for black pepper production.
