“Hindi na tumaas pa ang presyo ng bigas mula nang ipatupad ang Rice Tariffication Law noong Marso 2019.”
What Vera Files found
Tumaas ang presyo ng lokal na bigas mula nang ipatupad ang Rice Tariffication law noong Marso 2019. Halimbawa, ang umiiral na presyo ng regular-milled rice noong Marso 2019 ay nasa P39. Bumaba ito sa P35 noong Disyembre 2019, ngunit tumaas sa P38 sa ikalawang kalahati ng 2020 hanggang sa katapusan ng 2022, ayon sa Price Monitoring database ng Department of Agriculture. Pagdating ng Agosto ngayong taon, umabot na sa P40.50 kada kilo ang karaniwang presyo ng regular-milled rice.
