00:00The supply of pork is sufficient until Christmas, but the price of pork may increase in the Agriculture Department.
00:07The price of regular and well-milled rice should be up to Php 45 per kilo in Metro Manila starting on Monday.
00:16Witness, Bernadette Reyes.
00:18Php 40 to Php 54 is the price of a kilo of rice that is monitored by the Agriculture Department to the families in Metro Manila,
00:30depending on whether it is cut or well-milled.
00:33But in this place, in Quezon City, Php 48 per kilo is the cheapest rice.
00:39The good news is that starting on Monday, you can buy that kind of rice for Php 43 per kilo.
00:47This is in accordance with the agreement of the Agriculture Department to the leaders of the market associations in Metro Manila,
00:53that the income of rice should be Php 3 to Php 5 per kilo.
00:58With this agreement earlier, we're hoping that it will be sustained,
01:02that it will not only be chosen, but it will become a standard that for regular and well-milled rice,
01:08the price should not be higher than Php 45 per kilo in the market.
01:15We still have rice there, but only a small portion.
01:19That's why we're giving it.
01:21How will you earn?
01:23We'll just get it from others.
01:25As long as the port is reliable.
01:27Of course, we'll also look at it, together with the meeting earlier,
01:31the enforcement and our implementation team, led by ASEC-ITOS.
01:36We'll also look at the probability of profiteering.
01:43Other provinces will also follow,
01:45although it does not exclude the possibility that there may be a partial effect of the floods on the price of rice.
01:52When it comes to the supply of pork,
01:55the Department of Agriculture assured that the supply of pork is enough for Christmas,
02:00although there may be a partial increase in the price.
02:03The supply of native pork is also enough for those preparing for the lecture.
02:08For GMA Integrated News,
02:11I'm Brina De Atreyas, your witness.
