00:00Now that the preparations are done, cheap rice is the main thing that consumers are looking for.
00:06The Department of Agriculture said that there are varieties of rice that are being sold now that will not exceed 40 pesos per kilo.
00:13We have the first news, Bernadette Reyes.
00:18After the various Christmas shopping and the preparation of this holiday season,
00:22it's back to saving a lot, like Arnie Castillo.
00:26In rice, for example, she will try 38 pesos per kilo of regular milled rice.
00:31This celebration will be expensive, so I will try to buy cheap rice.
00:41The Department of Agriculture said that they have monitors like this in Marikina Public Market and La Huerta Market in Paranaque.
00:48There is one in Marikina, but it has been a long time since Belinda saw it.
00:52I didn't notice it, ma'am.
00:54If I saw it, I would buy it.
00:56In this time, we have food to eat.
01:01If they see that there is rice, they will buy it.
01:04If there is rice, they will buy it.
01:06Because there is no direct rice in Bulacan, Amogoy.
01:09So?
01:10To look for that kind of rice.
01:12This is what cheap rice looks like up close.
01:15If we compare it to the first class, this cheap rice is yellower.
01:19While the first class is white.
01:22But if we compare the price, the price difference is huge.
01:27Because the cheap rice is cheaper by 25 pesos compared to the first class.
01:32But not everyone can afford to lower the price.
01:36I can't afford it.
01:37Because the rice is already carton.
01:39It's already carton.
01:41It's still plastic.
01:42I will still use it.
01:43So that someone will buy cheap rice from us.
01:45The good news is that in January,
01:47NutriRice and SulitRice will sell their rice in Kaniwa Centers
01:51and Piling Pamilihan and Estacion ng Tren.
01:54NutriRice, which is rich in fiber and vitamins,
01:57will sell for 37 to 38 pesos per kilo.
02:00While SulitRice will be sold at a lower price,
02:04for 35 to 36 pesos per kilo.
02:07The quality is still good.
02:09The only difference is that this rice is broken.
02:13NutriRice is in between well-milled and brown rice.
02:21It still has a lot of nutrients.
02:24Meanwhile, Rice for All will make it more affordable.
02:28It is expected to reach its goal in the first quarter of the year
02:31before returning to the previous amount of rice.
02:34The 38 to 39 price of Rice for All
02:39will start this year.
02:44The expensive pork is still there.
