00:00 Because of the drought of the farms, the sugar producers are losing their supply of sugar.

00:08 So they say that the government will open if the government will increase the supply of sugar.

00:12 It's proven!

00:13 Simaab Gonzalez!

00:14 Elisa's sugar stock was at its peak last month.

00:20 It was at its peak in Mega Q Mart in Quezon City but the sales are still high.

00:24 The price is still around 90 to 100 pesos per kilo of white sugar and 80 to 85 per kilo of brown sugar.

00:31 It's not even half yet.

00:33 I should have just bought brown sugar so that I can dispose of it immediately.

00:37 The plant is still standing and it's not moving yet.

00:41 That's why it's heavy.

00:43 It's heavy because of the sugar. It's too expensive.

00:45 Brown sugar is cheaper because it's still cheap.

00:48 Elisa said that there's no problem with the supply.

00:52 In the other store of the sugar, the price of sugar is decreasing.

00:58 85 pesos per kilo of white and dark sugar and 75 pesos per kilo of brown sugar.

01:02 We were able to buy it.

01:05 How about the price?

01:06 The price is okay because it's decreasing compared to before.

01:12 But the United Sugar Producers Federation said that the supply of sugar can be delayed.

01:18 Sugar farmers are not able to plant their crops yet because the soil is already dry.

01:23 The rain is not happening because of the El Niño.

01:26 This is different. I've been farming for a long time.

01:28 This is the first time I experienced this.

01:30 It's very hot.

01:31 It's really, really strong heat.

01:34 If you look at the crop, you can feel it.

01:38 It's like it's burnt.

01:40 It's really dried up.

01:41 I really don't know if it can recover even if it rains.

01:45 It's really, really bad.

01:47 So even if they raise their sugar prices, they support it.

01:52 In the GAP, we will import the imported sugar.

01:58 Here in the ground, I saw that there's a lack of sugar.

02:02 That's equivalent to 185,000 to 200,000 metric tons.

02:07 When it rains in the next few weeks, sugar farmers can start planting their crops.

02:12 Farmers in the Agriculture Department are asking to stop giving irrigation equipment against the El Niño.

02:19 We are still trying to get the permission of the DA and Sugar Regulatory Administration, but they still have no response.

02:26 For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales was on the show for 24 hours.
