Local meat processors urged President Marcos Jr. to issue the new executive order (EO) that would extend the lower tariff rate on mechanically deboned meat (MDM) of poultry to prevent the possible “aggravation” of port congestion in the country.
LOCAL meat processors urged President Marcos Jr. to issue the new executive order that would extend the lower tariff rate on mechanically deboned meat of poultry to prevent the possible “aggravation” of port congestion in the country.
“We understand that the EO will be issued as part of anti-inflation measures along with that of pork, rice and corn,” Pampi added.Under the said EO, which was issued by former President Rodrigo Duterte, the tariff rate on poultry MDM should revert to 40 percent beginning January 1, 2023 unless the lower tariff rate has been extended.
“We hope the EO is issued immediately as MDM shipments are coming in. MDM arrivals are programmed to ensure there is no disruption in production and supply of finished goods,” it said.
