00:58 The victims of floods and landslides in Davao Region will also benefit from the food packs of the residents of Davao City affected by the floods.
01:07 The continued action of DSWD is in accordance with the Directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. of the Whole of Government Approach on Calamities.

02:33 Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel promised that the country's rice supply will be sufficient for the first half of the year,
02:42 despite the landslide in El Nino.
02:46 According to Calihim, aside from the rice harvested in Kamakaylan, there will be a shortage in March and April,
02:53 so the supply of food will be stable until June.
02:57 But the price could still remain high until September due to the effects of El Nino,
03:03 the decrease in rice supply and the increase in demand for butyl.

03:14 and expected to produce 1.5 to 2 million metric tons of rice per year.
03:19 India promised to provide the country with additional rice supply,

03:27 According to the Association of Fisheries in Pangasinan for Modified Raft Technology,
03:33 which was recognized by the Department of Agriculture, National Fisheries Research and Development Institute,
03:41 the potential of this technology is great to improve their way of oyster farming.
03:46 The fisheries will also be able to rely on their production of fish and will be able to create opportunities for livelihood in the province.
