00:00Pork meat is still expensive for the families, even though according to the Sinag group, there is no shortage in its supply.

00:08Darlene Cai is the one who pointed it out.

00:12Until now, the price hasn't gone down. It's been a year.

00:17This vendor is struggling with the Mega Q Mart because pork meat is still expensive.

00:22Pesos vary from P370 to P400 per kilo depending on the class.

00:27Our price is P360 per kilo.

00:30We sell P380 to P390 per kilo.

00:33P400 per kilo.

00:35We're still low on pork meat.

00:37It's not enough.

00:38It's even more expensive than Litex, up to P430 per kilo.

00:42If we're still low on pork meat, we'll be in a lot of trouble.

00:46Right now, we're still underpaid.

00:48It's expensive. We don't have a source of income.

00:50According to the Sinag group,

00:54each kilo of pork should reach P380,

00:57especially the farm gate price, which ranges from P230 to P250.

01:02Although the African Swine Fever or ESF is still a problem,

01:05there is no shortage in pork supply because it is supplied by importers.

01:10Our pork imports are at 45 to 50 percent.

01:16We don't talk about the shortage

01:19because our call storages and the monitoring of the government

01:24play between P90 million to P100 million per week.

01:30Let's not make it a reason or a fear of a shortage

01:34to justify why the price is high in the market.

01:38Sinag said that there needs to be a maximum retail price

01:42because pork is too expensive.

01:44They will meet with pork producers and retailers

01:47to find out where the price is rising.

01:50They are not the ones to blame.

01:53A lot of people have gone through this before them.

01:56It's good that the government started with the source.

01:59When it comes to the farm gate, the farm gate,

02:02or the imported cost,

02:04that's when they started looking at the price.

02:08Sinag said that if the government wants to reduce the price of pork,

02:13they should be the ones to buy hog raisers

02:16and build public farms.

02:18In Pangasinan, the high price of red onions

02:21has been a problem for two weeks.

02:24From P160 per kilo last week,

02:27it has now risen to P200.

02:30According to Sinag,

02:31they now know why the price of onions is rising.

02:34It should not be expensive

02:36because the price of onions has started

02:38in some parts of Pangasinan and Nueva Ecija.

02:41We are asking for the reaction of the Agriculture Department

02:44on the high price of pork and onions

02:46for the GMA Integrated News.

02:48Darlene Cai, Nakatutok, 24 Horas.
