00:00 The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources believes that the price of fish in the country can still be lowered

00:06 through the strengthening of its production.

00:09 This is Bernard Ferreros for Detailia.

00:11 Rise and shine Bernard!

00:13 The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources believes that the price of fish in the country can still be lowered

00:23 if the supply of fish remains high enough to reduce the price of fish in the country.

00:29 According to BFAR spokesperson Nazario Briguera,

00:32 there are things that they need to do to ensure that the target of lowering the price of fish can be achieved.

00:39 There are processes that we need to follow.

00:43 Of course, first of all, we need to increase the supply of fingerlings.

00:51 This is also the government's program.

00:54 We have the National Broadstock Development Program.

00:56 We have increased the number of fish and tilapia

01:01 so that the supply of our family of fish and tilapia will increase.

01:07 But if Senator Cynthia Villar is the one who will ask,

01:10 it still depends on the development programs of the Department of Agriculture

01:14 if the target of lowering the price of fish in the country can be achieved.

01:18 It's easy to say that your aim is this one.

01:21 Are you doing something to achieve it?

01:23 Like the 20 pesos rice.

01:26 But we know that to produce that, we have to have a developmental plan.

01:32 We have to mechanize, we have to teach them how to make better seeds

01:37 so that their productivity will increase.

01:39 We have to train them. That's why I built farm schools.

01:44 In the monitoring of the DA, each kilo of fish is worth P170.

01:50 The fish supply remains stable even if there is a closed fishing season.

01:55 While the imported fish is also full, the demand for fish is also high.

02:00 Meanwhile, BFAR called on aquaculture commodities owners

02:04 to follow the right process due to the severe effects of aluminum in the agriculture sector.

02:10 Bernard Ferrer, for the nation.
