Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary William D. Dar visited the Commonwealth Market on September 13, 2019 to check if stocks of National Food Authority (NFA) rice are already in the market following the P27.00-rice as directed and announced yesterday.
In a month’s time, the government will release a total of 3.6 bags of rice stored at NFA warehouses. The Secretary has also instructed the agency to increase the buying price of rice from P17.00 to P19.00 as part of the DA’s support to rice farmers. (Photos by Gian Carlo Luague)
