Harvest window
Peak harvest: Q4 (35.6%)
Sultan Kudarat is unusually spread out. The strongest quarter is Q4 at 35.6%, followed by Q1 at 26.6% — no single window dominates. Averaged across 2023–2025, a flatter curve like this is worth more to a processor than one large peak, because it covers months when other provinces have nothing.
Derived from PSA quarterly volume of production, averaged 2023–2025.
Logistics from Sultan Kudarat
Sultan Kudarat is in Soccsksargen, so shipment to a Luzon processing point is a container or RoRo movement. For most Sultan Kudarat growers the practical route is either drying at source or consolidating with other growers in the region to make a full container worth moving.
For lots above 1,000 kg we can arrange a pickup. We prefer partners who have their own shipping, trucking, or logistics.

How much ube is produced in Sultan Kudarat?
The Philippine Statistics Authority recorded 33 tonnes of ube produced in Sultan Kudarat in 2025, from 7.20 hectares planted. That is 0.27% of national output and ranks the province 43th in the Philippines by volume.
What months does ube actually come out of Sultan Kudarat?
Sultan Kudarat volume concentrates in Q4 — October–December — which carries 35.6% of the province's recorded output, averaged across 2023–2025. This is measured on volume produced, not area planted, so it reflects when tubers come out of the ground rather than when they go in.
Do you buy small volumes from Sultan Kudarat?
Yes, but the economics change below a certain size. For Sultan Kudarat we work with individual growers from 500 kg and with associations or cooperatives at any volume. Below 500 kg the sensible route is to consolidate with neighbouring growers first — we can help coordinate that.
What ube varieties do you buy?
We buy Dioscorea alata (greater yam) — the purple-fleshed ube used for halaya, powder and paste. Kinampay and its local selections are preferred where available for their colour and aroma, but we buy standard local purple types as well. We do not buy Dioscorea esculenta (tugui) or white-fleshed yam.
