The Department of Agriculture on Saturday advised importing 22,000 metric tons of onions to end the continuous rise in prices in public markets.
Estoperez added that the 22,000 metric tons must arrive before the peak harvest that will start in March. "Batay sa sitwasyon sa Nueva Ecija at Tarlac, may mga standing crops pa sila na magpi-peak ng February at March. Ang pangangailangan muna natin for the month, ang estimate namin ay mga 22,000 metric tons."
"Nung ginagawang P250 ang SRP ng pulang sibuyas, hindi pa rin bumababa ang presyo. Kahit nag-harvest doon, may highest bidder 'yung mga trader doon. Kapag P350 o P420 ang farm gate price ng sibuyas, mataas na talaga pagdating sa pamilihan," he said.
