00:00The supply of pork is enough for this upcoming holiday season.

00:03Be prepared!

00:04As we watch the fight against the African Swine Fever,

00:07it's getting tighter.

00:08Clazel Pardilla is in the center of the news, live!

00:11Clazel!

00:14Yes, Joshua Siniguro of the Department of Agriculture and the hog producers,

00:18that the supply of pork is enough for this upcoming holiday season.

00:24According to the National Hog Federation Farmers,

00:27the industry has already prepared the demand for the Christmas season.

00:30Here is their statement.

00:34This coming season of December,

00:37we have enough supply of pork.

00:41Even for the lechoneros,

00:44we have enough supply.

00:46With the Department of Agriculture, with ASEC-Dante,

00:50we made a computation.

00:54So, we make sure the past two months, three months,

00:57that we are ready for the season of December.

01:02Aside from the local production,

01:04the imported supply is also strong,

01:06with an inventory of more than 10% compared to the previous year.

01:12The question is, how will this affect the price this holiday season?

01:16The answer of the Department of Agriculture is...

01:20I saw a lot of supply in the fair.

01:24It should stabilize.

01:29To increase the production of 10,000 ASF vaccines,

01:32the government-controlled ASF vaccination was implemented.

01:37It aims to protect the pigs against ASF.

01:41At the same time, the DA continues to assure

01:44that the pigs that arrive at the NCR are safe

01:46and that the spread of diseases to animals will be stopped.

01:50The Department of Agriculture has already ordered

01:52the Bureau of Animal Industry

01:53to set up quarantine stations in Metro Manila

01:57and nearby provinces.

01:59This will serve as a checkpoint to inspect

02:02the animals that may have African Swine Fever and Bird Flu.

02:07According to the DA, border control is important,

02:09especially if ASF is spreading quickly,

02:12while Bird Flu is considered a zoonotic disease

02:15or may be infectious to humans.

02:18That is the latest.

02:19Back to you, Joshua.

02:22Thank you very much, Gleisel Pardilla.
