00:00 President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. has promised the onion producers that the government is doing interventions to stabilize the price of onions.
00:10 The President specifically mentioned the construction of cold storage facilities where the farmers and the voters can benefit.
00:21 According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chu Laurel Jr., two cold storage facilities in Occidental, Mindoro are currently being built.
00:30 Next year, five more cold storage warehouses will be built.
00:36 Aside from these facilities, the KADIWA Center in Metro Manila will also help to become the main market for the farmers of Mindoro.
00:47 Our target is to buy 600 units of containerized cold storage that will be given to each cooperative
00:57 to help in the storage of your harvest during peak season so that you can sell it later and not drop in the market and your price will drop.
01:10 Is that really necessary? For the price, if it's during the day, when we harvest onions, the supply will drop and the price will drop.
01:23 If we have cold storage, we don't need to buy immediately, whatever the demand is.
01:32 For the consumer, the price is equal, even if it's during the day, during the rain, during the cold weather, whatever the situation is, the price is more or less not changing.
