%X This paper describes the incremental successes and modalities in scaling up technologies approaches and processes in natural resource management implemented as part of the Research and Development (R&D) program of the International Center for Research in Agroforestry (ICRAF) in the provinces of Misamis Oriental and Bukidnon in Northern and Central Mindanao along with partners from the Local Governments and other public and private-institutions.  ICRAF has been conducting research on contour hedgerow technologies for the past decade in Claveria Misamis Oriental.  Focus was much on assessing the management strategies that address key technical constraints of the contour hedgerow system and observed that adoption by farmers was low for many reasons including high labor in establishment and maintenance of the hedgerows resource competition above and below-ground between the hedgerows and associated crops limited value-added from the hedgerow prunings and poor species adaptation
