00:00The Agriculture Department assured that there will be no problem in the supply of pork.

00:04Now, the African Swine Fever is a problem in some provinces.

00:07The DA also raised Php 150 million in the fund for financial assistance to the affected hog raisers.

00:14Tina Panganiban Perez has the first news.

00:20Despite the spread of African Swine Fever in some provinces

00:24and the death of thousands of pigs,

00:27there is no visible problem in the supply of pork

00:30is the secret of the Department of Agriculture.

00:33This is the concern of the Aga Party List,

00:36especially in the urban areas where there is a lot of preparation.

00:39I haven't seen any perceived shortage.

00:43It's farm-based lockdown now,

00:45not the whole municipality or the whole province.

00:48So there will still be a movement.

00:51Laurel also said that there is no reason for the price of pork and processed meat to rise.

01:12The DA raised Php 150 million for financial assistance to the affected hog raisers.

01:20Php 4,000 will be paid for each pig or small pig,

01:24Php 8,000 for the medium-sized,

01:27and Php 12,000 for the large.

01:29The DA said that the payment has been raised

01:32so that the affected pigs will not be exploited.

01:35The DA expects that next week,

01:38the first batch of 10,000 doses of the vaccine against ASF will be distributed.

01:44Php 350 million was raised for the 600,000 doses

01:49that the DA will give free to the affected ASF.

01:54The Aga Party List said that this is not enough

01:57because the backyard hog raisers are the ones who are taking care of the pigs for Php 6 million.

02:03The backyard raisers cannot afford Php 600 per pig.

02:10If we will give free to the backyard raisers,

02:14we will need Php 3.6 billion to buy the vaccine.

02:21This is the first news. Tina Panganiban Perez for GMA Integrated News.
