00:00The Agriculture Department allowed the lifting of a ton of onions.

00:05According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Chulaurel Jr.,

00:083,000 metric tons of red onions and 1,000 metric tons of white onions will be lifted.

00:14It is expected to arrive in the next two weeks.

00:17This is because the country surely has enough stock while waiting for the harvest.

00:23The DA said that the supply of onions will not be insufficient

00:26which could be the reason for the increase in its price.

00:29Remember that in 2022, the price of onions reached a record high of P700 per kilo in the market

00:36because of the shortage of onions.

00:38The Bureau of Plant Industry assured that the supply of onions will not be insufficient.

00:43Meanwhile, here in Balintawak Public Market,

00:47we can say that the price of onions is good and we know from the sellers.

00:54How much is a kilo of onions now?

00:56P160 per kilo.

00:58Is it cheap or expensive?

01:01It's expensive now.

01:03How much was it before?

01:05P115 per kilo.

01:08P115 per kilo. So, it's really expensive compared to the previous price.

01:11Yes.

01:12So, what do you think?

01:13What will be the effect of the lifting of onions?

01:20Maybe, it will hurt your bones.

01:23What will be the effect of the lifting of onions?

01:32It will hurt your bones.

01:33It will hurt your bones. Why?

01:34Because the price of onions will increase.

01:39Yes.

01:40So, it will not be sold?

01:42You can buy it anyway.

01:44That's why it will hurt your bones.

01:45Yes.

01:46So, what do you think?

01:48Is it right that we are lifting onions while we are waiting?

01:51Or is it okay if we have onions now?

01:54It depends.

01:56Sometimes, the price of onions does not increase.

01:58That's why they are lifting onions.

02:01What are the prices of onions that we can buy now?

02:04Did the sellers increase?

02:08Yes, because the price of onions has increased.

02:10So, if the sellers are buying onions, the price will not increase?

02:13Yes.

02:14If they are buying 10 onions, the price will increase to 5.

02:16Because it is expensive for them.

02:18Yes.

02:19So, what do you think?

02:20If the imported onions arrive, the locals might not be able to buy them?

02:25Maybe.

02:26Because they might be cheaper.

02:28Yes, they are cheaper.

02:29So, what should the DA do?

02:30For example, if the price of onions has increased,

02:32should the locals and the imported onions be bought at the same price?

02:36At the same price.

02:37At the same price?

02:38Yes.

02:39Okay, thank you very much.

02:41Those are the observations of the sellers of onions here in Balintawak Public Market.

02:49If the imported onions arrive,

02:51they hope that the prices here in the market will be equal

02:55so that the locals will not be left behind.

02:58Because the imported onions might be bought

03:00if the prices here in the market are cheaper.

03:03Let's go back to the studio.

03:05Do you want to be the first to know?
