00:00Let's find out the prices of the main items to be bought this coming Tuesday by Denise Osorio, live. Denise?
00:09Audrey, at the moment, everyone is monitoring the prices of onions, rice, and pork in the market,
00:17aside from the maximum suggested retail price, or MSRP, of imported rice,
00:22and the issue of African Swine Fever, or ASF, in pigs.
00:27Army Worms in onions, rice, and pork are also being sold.
00:32This is a new trend, a change in prices.
00:36Here in Visayas Avenue, Wet and Dry Market,
00:39it is noteworthy that the MSRP of the Department of Agriculture in imported rice follows.
00:47Usually, specialty rice will exceed Php 58 per kilo,
00:52such as red rice and Japanese rice.
00:55For pork, it is Php 400 per kilo of pork and pork chop,
01:00while Php 450 per kilo of pork belly.
01:05And one of our main items, onions,
01:08even if its price is higher in Balintawak Market,
01:11its price is lower here.
01:14The red onions used to be Php 180 per kilo,
01:17now it is Php 160 per kilo.
01:21While the white onions used to be Php 10 per kilo,
01:24it used to be Php 130 per kilo,
01:27now it is just Php 120 per kilo.
01:30Audrey, our countrymen are slowly feeling the price of rice decrease,
01:36after the D.A. issued the MSRP on January 20.
01:42Also, our consumers should be aware that it is safe to buy and eat fresh and local pork,
01:51and the ASF is not contagious from animals to humans.
01:57That is the latest news from Visayas Avenue, Wet and Dry Market.
02:01Back to you, Audrey.
02:02Thank you very much, Denise Osorio.
