00:00The Department of Agriculture, a DA, says that the National Food Authority, or NFA,
00:04is expected to roll out its cheaper price staple grain, which can be sold for as low as 35 pesos
00:10a kilo to more than 50 local government units, or LGUs, by next week. According to Agricultural
00:16Secretary Francisco T. Laurel, Jr., the process of documentation to roll out affordable rice is
00:22still ongoing. Furthermore, President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. directed the DA to focus on lowering
00:28the price of pork, which is now at P345 to P480 pesos per kilo. The DA is planning to impose
00:35a maximum suggested retail price, or MSRP, on pork before the end of February.
00:42The farm gate now is P240 to P250. I'm looking for P100 pesos.
00:50Anything above P400, I think, is unreasonable.
