00:00The Department of Agriculture made it clear that Comelec will not prohibit the sale of NFA rice to LGUs.

00:08But they issued a condition for the upcoming campaign period that will start this month.

00:15This is what Vell Custodio reported.

00:19The Department of Agriculture clearly issued a memorandum of the Commission on Elections

00:23regarding the sale of NFA rice during the 45-day election campaign period from March 28 to May 11.

00:30Comelec will not prohibit the sale of NFA rice to LGUs.

00:36But Comelec said that LGUs should not sell NFA rice that is lower than what NFA rice was sold to them.

00:48It means that the sale of NFA rice should not be lower than P33 and it should not be given for free.

01:01This means that LGUs do not need to apply for exemption from Comelec

01:06as long as the conditions provided by Comelec for the sale of NFA rice are met,

01:11in accordance with the National Food Security Emergency on rice.

01:15The Department of Agriculture is also coordinating with the Japan International Cooperation Agency, or JAICA,

01:20for a possible P11 billion project in the post-harvest facility for rice

01:24that will be supported by the National Food Authority and other partner rice cooperatives and associations.

01:30We are discussing a possible project, the post-harvest facility for rice,

01:39for dryers and rice mills that will support the National Food Authority and our cooperatives and associations.

01:48This can start in 2026 or 2027.

01:51In order to continue lowering the price of meat, the DA is implementing the maximum suggested retail price for pork.

01:58The reaction of the sellers and buyers in the market is positive.

02:02It will be a big help for us.

02:04Even for the small sellers, they are able to buy even a little bit.

02:08The sales are getting better.

02:10We are just adjusting the price that we are buying.

02:13Depending on the price, we are just adjusting the price that we are buying.

02:18Even though the supermarkets do not have pork MSRP,

02:21the DA is coordinating with the supermarkets to lower the price of pork.
