00:00More than 15,000 pigs were killed by the African Swine Fever in Lobo, Batangas.
00:06The situation is now being addressed with the help of vaccination and the proliferation of pigs.
00:11But if the supply is not enough, they are also looking for a way to raise the supply.
00:15Bernadette Reyes is on the scene.
00:20If you are going to buy pork today, the lowest price for a kilo of pork is Php 260.
00:27And Php 300 is the cheapest pork in their family.
00:30Based on the latest price monitoring of the Department of Agriculture.
00:34According to the National Federation of Hog Farmers Incorporated,
00:38the price of pork has dropped because the farmers panicked to sell their pigs
00:41in places affected by the African Swine Fever.
00:44Now, 458 barangays have been hit by the ASF in the country.
00:50Will the supply of pork be enough, especially in the months starting tomorrow?
00:54When will the preparation of lechon, barbecue, menudo and other dishes be popular again?
01:01The hog raisers still believe that the demand is increasing.
01:04There is disposable income, they can eat in restaurants again with their families.
01:10All these will create higher demand.
01:13Naturally, if the supply drops, the price will increase again.
01:18In 26 barangays in Lobo, Batangas, for example,
01:22the ASF has a case in 21 barangays, most of which were hit by backyard farms.
01:27Around 15,212 mortalities.
01:32This is what we recorded.
01:34Some died, some depopulated, some went bankrupt.
01:38Those who did not report to us are not included here.
01:41Our farmers went bankrupt.
01:45According to the DA, aside from the start of controlled vaccination,
01:48repopulation will continue in various parts of the country.
01:51It is also possible to import if necessary.
01:54The new police agency is also planning to allow pork to be exported from red zones
02:00to other places if there is no disease.
02:02We are just waiting for the issuance of the guidelines
02:07so that we can ensure that the ASF-free pork can reach the families in the slaughterhouses
02:15and we will not wait for the ASF to be affected in the red zones.
02:20According to pork retailer Melinda,
02:22this will help ensure the supply of pork to the families.
02:26As long as the ASF-free pork is good and there is no disease, that's okay.
02:33We have permits.
02:35I hope we will not go out of business because this is what we are looking for.
02:42According to the Department of Agriculture in Mamimili,
02:44the NMIS should look for a source of exploitation like this.
02:49This means that your meat will be of good quality and safe to eat.
