The country is experiencing a moderate El Niño, which is expected to strengthen until the first quarter of 2024, the state weather bureau said. “One of the directives of the President is, “if there’s dirt there, clean it up,” he said in a mix of English and Filipino. He said the President told him to modernize agriculture with the goal of achieving food security, reducing import dependence, and lifting millions of farmers and fishes out of poverty by the end of his term in 2028.
Laurel called for unity and cooperation in the agricultural community to achieve their shared targets.
