More and more commercial uses of abaca are being discovered, boosting the market potential of this plant known the world over as Manila hemp.


Traditionally used in the production of ropes, twines, clothing materials, and carpets, abaca is one of the country’s "endemic treasures", earning about $79 million (about P400 million) a year.
