Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel, Jr sees no shortage in pork supply in the coming months despite the spread of African swine fever in parts of the country.On the sidelines of the House Committee on Appropriations hearing on the Department of Agriculture's P200.2-billion proposed appropriations for 2025 , Laurel said the ASF -related lockdowns were farm-based.“Wala naman akong nakikitang perceived shortage.
“'Yun nga ang reason kung bakit tinaas namin at ni-nationalize namin ang indemnification, para talagang katayin na nila, i-surrender nila,” Laurel explained.Laurel said the supply of pork will not be affected because the DA is also implementing a hog repopulation program. Importation also continues.“Tuloy-tuloy pa rin ang importation. It's not being controlled in any way ng baboy. Market forces will dictate kung nakikita may shortage nang konti. And the importers will just import.
