The Samahang Industriya ng Agrikultura on Wednesday slammed the extended lower tariff rates on imported pork, rice, corn, and coal.

“If there was a supply gap on pork ; dapat sumirit na pataas ang farmgate ng palay, baboy o manok. Walang shortage, pero meron nagsasamantala . But it never happened, bumagsak pa nga farmgate ng baboy at manok ,” he said. The Agriculture official said that producers have to understand that the DA is also concerned with local farmers, “but we also have to have concern on the whole economy as well.”

“We will work with the government and call on stakeholders to manage the value chain in order to lower the retail price for the consumers,” MITA said.
