00:18 Prince Ocampo is a construction worker.

00:20 Because his income is not big, the price of rice is heavy for him.

00:25 That's why he only manages to earn 3 kilos per week.

00:29 I only work 2 times a day.

00:31 I eat in one day.

00:33 To save money.

00:35 Some people choose to eat like this.

00:38 We are 20 people.

00:41 We only buy broken rice.

00:48 Because it's expensive.

00:50 We only buy a kilo of rice now.

00:52 Before, we used to buy 10 kilos of rice.

00:56 But now, we only buy a kilo.

00:58 The rice sellers in Mega Q Mart in Quezon City

01:02 don't know what to do if the price suddenly rises.

01:07 It has a big effect because the new year has passed.

01:13 It's not that easy to buy.

01:15 Because now, it's a bit expensive.

01:17 If the price rises, we don't know if the rice sales will continue.

01:23 That's why I just bought products that I can sell.

01:30 The price of rice varies from 54 to 60 pesos per kilo.

01:34 It depends on the type.

01:35 Premium Grade Loka is the cheapest.

01:37 Jasmine and Coco Pandan are the most expensive.

01:40 Even in some provinces,

01:42 the rice sellers are suffering because of the high price of rice.

01:46 It hurts.

01:47 We are poor.

01:49 We only have 2 children.

01:51 We only have 2 children.

01:53 We are sellers.

01:54 We are poor.

01:56 We are poor.

01:58 We don't have money to buy food.

02:02 Even the rice sellers are suffering because of the low prices.

02:07 According to Grupong Sinag,

02:09 the farm gate price of rice has risen

02:12 due to the low production and high price of rice in the market.

02:16 But they are sure that the rice supply is enough.

02:20 Internationally, the price of rice is high.

02:24 Here in our local market,

02:26 we don't have much rice.

02:28 Our main crop is finished.

02:32 Now, we are only getting a little rice.

02:34 So, it's a no-no for our remaining stocks.

02:37 The Department of Agriculture said

02:40 that there is imported rice that has risen

02:42 and that it is expected to help lower the price of rice.

02:46 They are also studying the implementation of the suggested retail price or SRP

02:51 for rice so that it can still reach the buyers.

02:55 Of course, they will consult with the stakeholders.

02:58 We need to look at the composition of the producers group,

03:03 what rice produced until it became rice.

03:06 Then on the trader side,

03:08 what are their expenses in warehousing, milling, drying.

03:12 For retailers, what are their expenses.

03:17 We can compare and see the range of the price.

03:26 For Jimmy Integrated News, Katrina Son.

03:30 For Tutok Tlilip, 24 hours.
