Estimated losses in fiber yield in the Bicol region [Philippines] and equivalent values in pesos as a result of the widespread occurrence of bunchy-top and mosaic were enormous. On a region-wide mean disease incidence of 5.19 percent, the estimated yield loss in fiber yield was 833,587.99 kg valued at Php18,338,935.78. The province of Sorsogon appeared to be the hardest hit with an equivalent pesos loss of Php9,458,893.40. Although Catanduanes has an average disease incidence of only 2.83 percent, lower than those observed in Albay and Camarines Sur, it came in second in terms of loss, which was valued at Php5,814,850.36 on account of the large hectarage planted to abaca. In Eastern Visayas, the estimated fiber loss was 312,076 kg with a value of Php8,440,350. Northern Samar and Northern Leyte sustained the highest losses, with estimated fiber losses of 153,186 and 116,280 kg valued at Php3,829,650 and Php3,488,400, respectively. Southern Leyte has the lowest estimated loss due to smaller area affected
