00:00The Department of Agriculture plans to put the maximum suggested retail price of garlic because its price is high at the moment.

00:09How much is the price of a kilo of garlic in the markets at the moment?

00:13Vell Custodio of PTV Live has the news.

00:19Now, the Department of Agriculture is investigating the reason behind the high price of imported garlic in the market.

00:26Here in Mega Q Mart, you can buy a kilo of garlic for Php 160 because it costs Php 140 to get the retailers here.

00:40The DA is considering putting the maximum suggested retail price of garlic to avoid the possible abuse of its price.

00:48According to the sellers here in Mega Q Mart, since the last quarter of 2024, the price of garlic is not decreasing.

00:56Because the retail price of imported garlic has almost doubled, its landed cost is only Php 80 per kilo.

01:02According to the DA, Secretary Francisco T. Laurel Jr. said that the market price of garlic should be Php 100 to Php 110.

01:12That's why the DA will ask the garlic importers to see where the problem is.

01:1795% of the supply of garlic in the market is imported.

01:21Because of the small production of garlic here due to the climate of the country.

01:27That's why the mechanism is being studied to increase the production of local garlic variety.

01:33According to the DA, it's better if the price of imported garlic can be lowered so that the MSRP does not need to be increased.

01:42There is a discount for the retailer we interviewed to save money.

01:48We are buying the garlic without the skin. That's the cheapest price.

01:53Sometimes, it's Php 30 or Php 1.5.

01:57If possible, the price should be lowered.

02:02Because I'm used to the small kitchen in the retailer.

02:12Aside from garlic, the DA is also monitoring the price of eggs in the market.

02:18For now, Php 8 is left for a medium-sized egg.

02:21For the traffic in front of Mega Q Mart, the traffic line is still wide on both sides of the road here in EDSA.

02:31While the line of passengers in EDSA Bus Carousel Station is still long.

02:38From People's Television Network, Vel Custodio, Balitang Pampansa.

02:43Thank you, Vel Custodio of PTV.
