The sugarcane industry stands as a cornerstone of economic growth, wielding substantial influence on GDP, employment, and everyday sustenance through sugar production and biofuel contributions. This study endeavors to craft a robust action plan for the North Cluster Planters’ Association of Tarlac, Inc., aimed at enhancing its management systems. Employing a mixed-method research approach, the study utilized interviews, observations, and document review to gather data from various sources. Through Information and SWOT analysis, weaknesses in financial, human resource, operational, and marketing management were analyzed: conflicting audit review, underutilized assets, lack of formal feedback mechanism, and such. To address these challenges, the action plan proposes strategies such as thorough financial reviews, adaptation of feedback drop box, partnerships with governments, and enhanced promotional strategies. By implementing these strategies, the incorporated association can fortify its operations, foster growth, and better serve its stakeholders in the dynamic sugarcane landscape.
