00:00 According to the new Agriculture Secretary Francisco T. Laurel Jr.,

00:04 it is not yet possible to produce 20 pesos per kilo of rice today.

00:08 Let's get to the live news of Bernadette Reyes.

00:12 Bernadette.

00:14 Conny JP, the President's Director, Bongbong Marcos,

00:21 is encouraging the production of rice to all sectors of agriculture

00:24 in the new Department of Agriculture.

00:27 In the first instance, the new Secretary of the Department of Agriculture,

00:34 Francisco T. Laurel Jr., visited the flag-raising ceremony of the government.

00:39 He will visit the various positions of the government

00:42 so that the workers in the Department of Agriculture can be better recognized.

00:45 Rice is one of the agricultural products

00:48 that the President Marcos gave to the Department of Agriculture.

00:50 It needs to be modernized,

00:52 given irrigation, fertilizer, and proper use of fertilizers.

00:56 It is not yet possible to produce 20 pesos per kilo of rice

01:00 because the price of rice in the world market is high.

01:02 But he will make an effort to make it more affordable for the buyers.

01:08 He did not see a problem with the production,

01:10 but he was just good at taking positions several times,

01:14 but he said that the country is expensive.

01:15 The Secretary also clarified that he is now divesting

01:19 from the companies he used to own.

01:21 He has a full-time job in the DA,

01:24 and he has no time for other things.

01:26 Despite his donation to the campaign of President Bongbong Marcos,

01:30 his position is not considered a payback,

01:33 but a sacrifice as a love for the country.

01:36 The Bureau of Agricultural Statistics will return to the plans of the Secretary

01:41 to have accurate data and an intelligence group

01:45 because the President's directive to clean up corruption in the DA.

01:50 The anti-smuggling and anti-hoarding campaign of the DA will also continue.

01:54 He is not a pro-importation,

01:56 but he will support a stronger production.

01:59 While the Presco of Calihim was in a frenzy,

02:01 the group of Malacayas protested outside the office

02:05 as a lesson in the importance of the position of Calihim.

02:08 They believe that this is a conflict of interest.

02:11 They will talk to Calihim tomorrow if they will be called.

02:17 Connie, JP, in the last price monitoring of the Department of Agriculture,

02:20 the price of well-mealed rice per kilo of their family is now reaching P53.

02:25 But for now, there are still people who can buy rice for P45 per kilo.

02:30 In fact, it is expected that before the end of the year,

02:34 the production of rice in the country will be record high

02:37 and it can reach 20 million metric tons.

02:40 JP, Connie?

02:41 Thank you very much, Bernadette Reyes.
