00:00The Department of Agriculture emphasized that the prices of the main commodities this year are very low and stabilized.
00:06This is contrary to the various challenges that the country is facing, such as El Niño, the following typhoons and floods.
00:12According to Assistant Secretary Arnel de Mesa, the price of sugar is very low, as is the price of onions, which has also become stable.
00:20And even if the problem of African Swine Fever or ASF continues, we have not experienced a lack of supply of agri-commodity.
00:28While rice, aside from being very low, has also increased in supply.
00:33This is a good story.
00:35Although the price of rice has increased, we have seen that the price of rice is slowly decreasing and we are not lacking in supply in our country.
00:46And here are some programs, such as Rice for All, P29 for vulnerable sectors.
00:54We will launch NutriRice and SolitRice.
00:58This is also the way to catch smugglers and pass key laws that can help our sector.
