00:00The price of vegetables and eggs in the market has increased.
00:03It may be affected by the need for the taste of habagat and bagyong karina.
00:08Meanwhile, some farms in Tarlac, which are known to have cases of bird flu, are being closely monitored.
00:14Clayzel Cordilla is back in the report.
00:20The price of some of Leticia's vegetables in the Commonwealth Market has doubled.
00:24The previous price of 60 pesos per kilo of eggplant is now 120 pesos.
00:30The price of lettuce and carrots has also increased.
00:44That's why Ms. Vini was forced to cut her budget.
00:49She only bought it in Iote, so she will just discard it to be able to buy malunggay in Kapitbahay.
01:03The price of eggs has also increased.
01:05From 120 pesos for each tray of the smallest egg, now it has increased to 200 pesos.
01:14That's why one piece of egg was 4 pesos before, now it's more than 6 pesos.
01:27Baby said that there's only one way.
01:30If the budget is not enough, we will cut it.
01:33If it was two trays before, now it's one tray.
01:38It can fit up to a week's budget.
01:41According to the Department of Agriculture,
01:43it's natural for the price of eggs to increase whenever there's a high demand.
01:49This week, the demand started to increase.
01:51And then for the sikarina,
01:53even though it wasn't affected by the layers or poultry farms,
01:58there are some warehouses where eggs got wet.
02:01So that's the reason why the prices of eggs are increasing.
02:06But not because of the AI.
02:08Three farms in Tarlac are suspected of having avian influenza or bird flu.
02:14A confirmatory test was already done to determine the disease that affected the farm.
02:19If it's positive for bird flu, a test will be done immediately.
02:23There's strict monitoring being done in the neighboring areas.
02:26And there's no need to worry about the supply.
02:29Just wait for the result of the house.
02:32The AI is easier to test compared to the ASF.
02:38Because of the AI, you just need to cull all the chickens.
02:42Let the farm rest.
02:45Then after six months, you can put the chickens again.
02:48According to the latest data from the Agriculture Department,
02:51the cost of agriculture has increased to 1.21 billion pesos.
02:57The sikarina is very expensive.
02:59More than 88 million pesos were spent on high-value crops or vegetables.
03:03Part of Cordillera and part of Mimaropa were affected.
03:07We're happy that Calabarzon wasn't affected.
03:11The DA is positive that the prices of vegetables will return to normal.
03:15Now, the travel and operations to the farms are normal.
