00:00According to the Philippine News Agency, it is possible that the price of tomatoes will return to normal by the end of January and the first week of February,
00:08according to Agriculture Assistant Secretary Arnel De Mesa.
00:12The supply of tomatoes in January will increase until February, so the price will also drop.
00:19De Mesa said that the price of tomatoes is now rising because of the lack of supply.
00:26This was followed by additional typhoons last year, along with the destruction of the typhoon, green and red flowers in Cagayan Valley, Calabar Zone, and Bicol.
00:36As of January 4, the price of tomatoes is between Php 200 to Php 300 per kilo.
00:43This is higher than Php 40 to Php 100 per kilo last year or before the typhoons arrived.
