00:07 Good morning, here is the PTV news.
00:10 Today, the amount of aid that the government has provided to those affected by El Nino will reach 1.1 billion pesos.
00:19 Not only the farmers benefited, but also their families.
00:26 Among the aid provided are financial aid, food packs, and food supplies.
00:32 Currently, the amount of aid to agriculture has reached 2.63 billion pesos.
