President Ferdinand ''Bongbong'' Marcos Jr. on Tuesday assured the public that there is enough supply of rice in the country despite the El Niño phenomenon. In an ambush interview, Marcos said this was made possible by the new farming techniques and improved irrigation system that were adopted by the government.“Well, kung ang pag-uusapan natin ay bigas, sapat naman ang ating supply. Hindi kailangang mag-alala ang tao.
Dito sa Occidental Mindoro, ang calculation namin, one percent lamang nung mga irrigated lands ang naapektuhan ng El Niño na talagang kailangan ng tulong," he added. The President also guaranteed that his administration is fast tracking the installation of solar pumps in upland non-irrigated areas to boost production. Marcos added that the government is building dams and impounding ponds to ensure rich agricultural production.
