00:00 The price of meat has gone up!
00:03 Each kilo of sauteed ginger has now reached P300.
00:08 The price of vegetables has also gone up.
00:11 Maki Polido is now in shock.
00:13 You just want to eat tinola, but you can't afford ginger.
00:21 Who would have thought that ginger would cost P300 per kilo in their family?
00:26 It's a lot even for a small one.
00:28 A small one like this, how much is it? P36?
00:33 Why is it shocking?
00:34 For a ginger, yes, it's P36.
00:37 How much is that?
00:38 I look at the prices of the vegetables that are in good condition.
00:44 If it's P30, maybe it's a time strain.
00:48 It's a lot.
00:49 Last two weeks, the vendors in Farmer's Market, Quezon City said that the price of ginger is going up every day.
00:56 From P180, it has now reached P300 per kilo this morning.
01:02 That's why Remi's vendor is now selling at P10, from the previous P25, because the sales are not going to be depleted.
01:10 It's less, and of course, when you sell, the price is also less.
01:14 It's not like before, when it's cheap, if it's expensive, the price is also less.
01:18 Even if ginger is falling in Farmer's Market, it's hard to believe the price of ginger has gone up.
01:24 It's just now that it's going up. Before, it was P190, now it's P200.
01:29 When the price of ginger started to go up, Namara started to sell imported ginger.
01:33 It's cheaper by P20 per kilo.
01:36 But because there's no available supply of imported ginger, they don't sell it.
01:41 It's really expensive, ma'am. Our boss can't afford to buy it.
01:45 Bantay Bigas said that the problem with ginger is just like other products like onions.
01:51 Traders are buying it cheaply during the harvest season and will sell it if the supply is not enough.
01:57 The system is still the same, because the traders who can buy it, they have post-harvest facilities, they have cold storage.
02:07 So they can still increase the price.
02:10 But ginger didn't go up in price compared to last week.
02:13 In Farmer's Market, lowland or highland vegetables, the price of vegetables went up by P20 to P30.
02:20 Estavillo said that because of the El Niño, many farmers couldn't grow their crops.
02:25 Because their crops were damaged, they are really back to basics.
02:31 They are asking for compensation and assistance from the government so that they can buy their crops.
02:38 We are still trying to get the permission of the Department of Agriculture about this.
02:43 For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido, for 24 Hours.
