00:00The National Food Authority's target is to lower the price of their rice.
00:04But what's making the Mami Mili's pockets heavier is the pork that has gone up in price.
00:11Von Aquino has more.
00:15Even though the Christmas holidays are over, pork is still expensive to buy.
00:21The price went up by P10 to P30 in the last monitoring of the Department of Agriculture
00:26compared to the price on the last day of 2024.
00:30In Manila, the price of pork per kilo was increased by P20 to P40 in the Blue Man Treat Market.
00:36Every three days, they increase the price of pork by P5.
00:41So that we can buy it.
00:43Our rice is poor because...
00:46It's a bit of a loss when you're in the business, especially in the business.
00:49Because it goes up. Sometimes you have to adjust. Sometimes it's hard to adjust.
00:55P30 is more expensive in the labor market.
00:59While in Mega Q Mart in Quezon City, the price was increased by P60 to P70 per kilo.
01:05We asked the DA why the price of pork is high but they still don't have an answer.
01:11When it comes to the recent declaration of the Food Security Emergency,
01:15it's not only the consumers who will benefit,
01:18but also the farmers, according to the Association of Industries of Agriculture or SINAG.
01:22When the National Food Authority sold the buffer stocks of rice
01:27to local farmers, they will also buy in return.
01:30It's not a loss for the consumers.
01:32And they will buy a replacement for the one that will be distributed to LG.
01:40Of course, in the last part of February, the rice harvest will start in March.
01:46If it can be implemented, it will take more or less 10 to 15 days.
01:54So let's look at the timing so that it can be disposed.
01:58They want the government to review Executive Order No. 62,
02:02return the old tariffs on the importation of rice,
02:05and give the collection of tariffs to local farmers
02:08to lower the production cost and lower the price of rice.
02:12According to DA spokesperson Arnel Demesa,
02:15they plan to lower the price of NFA rice to P38 per kilo.
02:19The price of NFA rice that we will sell is currently P38 per kilo.
02:26But there is an agreement or resolution to lower it to P36
02:33so that it can be sold for P38 per kilo.
02:37And there is also another agreement to put it at P33 the next day
02:44so that LGU can sell it for P35 per kilo.
02:47According to Demesa,
02:48the resolution to approve the food security emergency
02:51may be accepted on Monday.
02:53And on Wednesday, the declaration may be approved.
02:57The maximum suggested retail price of imported rice
03:01is expected to start on January 20.
