00:00If not free, cheap vaccines against African Swine Fever are expected by the pork farmers.

00:08But it seems that the Department of Agriculture values are more expensive than the price they mentioned.

00:15Bernadette Reyes was right.

00:21Even if the whole Batangas is in a state of calamity,

00:24the pork farmers there insisted that not all pigs from the province are sick.

00:30These are isolated cases.

00:32Most of the barangays, predominantly of the barangays, are clear and the pigs are clean.

00:37The plan of controlled vaccination against ASF has already started.

00:4110,000 doses will be given by the Department of Agriculture.

00:44The pork farmers asked that the vaccines should be available.

00:48The existing vaccine that we are using right now,

00:51all vaccines range from Php 20 to as high as Php 100.

00:57So that is the range that the end-users can afford.

01:02If there is a vaccine and the vaccine is effective, it should be given to the backyard for free.

01:08But according to the Department of Agriculture, the vaccine is Php 400 to Php 500 per dose.

01:14On the other hand, the DA did not see that it could affect the price of pork.

01:20The portion of Php 400 to Php 500 is very small.

01:26That's only 5% more or less of the production.

01:30While there is no vaccine, the border control will be tightened

01:34so that the pigs from places with ASF will not reach other places.

01:38In Crescent City, the backyard racers are encouraged to give up the pigs.

01:44There is an ordinance against backyard hog racing in the province,

01:47but they did not pay Php 2,000 to Php 5,000, as stated in the ordinance.

01:54The city will buy the pigs at a reasonable rate.

02:00According to the local government, if the pigs are positive for ASF,

02:04they will be immediately condemned.

02:06But if there is no disease, the pigs will be sold to slaughterhouses.

02:11For GMA Integrated News, Bernadette Reyes, Nakatuto, 24 Hours.
