00:00The action of the Department of Agriculture is also fast to address the effects of the Christine typhoon.

00:05The government assured that the rice supply in the country is still sufficient.

00:09This is the national news of Claizel Pardilla.

00:14It seems that the Christine typhoon swept away the rice in San Joseca, Marinasur.

00:19The rice in Libon Albay sank in the flood and was filled with sand.

00:25That's just a few of the crops cut by the Christine typhoon.

00:29According to the Department of Agriculture,

00:31the Christine typhoon is expected to hit 1 million hectares of rice

00:37in the regions of Ilocos, Cagayan, Central, Mimaropa, Calabarzon, Bicol, Caraga and Eastern Visayas.

00:47But the agency believes that the typhoon's impact will not be great.

00:5260 to 70 percent of the so-called matured crops in the areas were saved after the DA's early warning.

01:02The Secretary advised our regional field offices and regional directors to carry out the harvesting.

01:11But of course, we cannot harvest all of it.

01:14Currently, there are areas that were planted early.

01:18After the early harvest, they caught up with the second or third crop.

01:23That's about 15 percent.

01:25Of course, if it's damaged, it will be hard for you to recover.

01:30But if we are advised, at least we saved a lot.

01:35The damage will not be that great.

01:38The agency is encouraging the rice supply.

01:43Because of the importation, we expect that based on the historical trend,

01:50our stock inventory can still reach 100 days after the end of the year.

01:57So we are not worried when it comes to our stocks.

02:00Free rice, fat and other farm inputs have already been placed

02:04to be distributed to farmers affected by the typhoon.

02:08The National Food Authority will continue to export rice to meet the needs in the areas where the typhoon Christine was placed.

02:16500 sacks of rice were deployed for relief operations in Sorsobon and Catanduanes.

02:22Currently, the NFA's inventory is more than four million sacks of rice.

02:28We are expecting more requests from the LGUs in San Aga.

02:33You know, we have a lot of economy.

02:35We are really confident that we can provide stocks to our LGUs in Mangaylang.

02:41The agency has ordered the opening of all warehouses in the country

02:45so that the rice can be deployed quickly.

02:49From PTV, Kalei Zalpar Villa, Balitang Pambansa.
