The Department of Agriculture said yesterday it will roll out the Kadiwa ng Pangulo Rice-for-All program, where it sells rice at a lower rate, at major public markets and MRT and LRT stations in Metro Manila.
The DA said the price will be reduced further starting today to a P40 per kilo as part of efforts to shield consumers from inflationary pressures. Agriculture Secretary Francisco P. Tiu Laurel Jr. said the DA plans to expand the program to other parts of the country “where prices of rice remain high, a situation that borders on profiteering.”
