00:00The government promised to help the farmers affected by the next calamity in the country.

00:08In fact, the Development Bank of the Philippines launched the Agri-Puhunan and Pantawid Program

00:15where the target is to benefit 50,000 farmers.

00:20Claycel Pardilia is in the center of the news.

00:23More than P100 million Pesos were left in the agriculture sector by the next typhoons Ferdie, Henner, and Heled.

00:33According to the Department of Agriculture,

00:361,600 hectares of rice is a high-value crop that was destroyed in Mimaropa, Western Visayas, and Zamboanga Peninsula.

00:46In addition, 1,300 farmers were affected by the calamity.

00:51The D.A. promised to distribute free rice, fertilizers, and other products to the farmers.

00:58The Development Bank of the Philippines assured the support from the Agri-Puhunan and Pantawid Program of the agency.

01:06Under the program, the farmers are given a chance to borrow up to two hectares of rice for farming.

01:17The first thing they do is to go to the stores or distributors or merchants to buy rice, fertilizers, and pesticides.

01:27As soon as they start farming, they are given interest and loans.

01:34They will pay 15 to 20 percent interest monthly.

01:38We are looking for a program that will really help them.

01:42With the help of the Agri-Puhunan and Pantawid Program,

01:46the D.B.P. received an Interventions Monitoring Card with a credit limit of up to Php 60,000.

01:53Php 28,000 can be used to buy fertilizer, pesticides, and other farm inputs from the accredited stores of the D.B.P.

02:04The farmers will receive Php 8,000 monthly for four months.

02:10The average production of the farmers varies from 5 to 7 tons.

02:15To ensure that their farmers have enough to buy rice whenever there is a calamity,

02:235 tons of their production will be sold to the National Food Authority,

02:28which will be sold at a price of Php 21 per kilo.

02:33Php 21 per kilo for 5 tons or Php 5,000, that is Php 105,000 per hectare.

02:43If we reduce the credit that we gave them to Php 60,000 per hectare,

02:48the difference will be Php 45,000.

02:52The Php 45,000, they can already see it.

02:55The program advanced to Php 8,000 per month for four months.

02:59That is Php 32,000. It's like you already gave them an advance income.

03:03That is Php 77,000 net per hectare to our beloved farmers.

03:13If there is more rice, the farmers will surely earn more.

03:19Only 2% of the annual interest will be collected by the D.B.P.

03:24The farmers will be insured so that whenever there is a calamity,

03:28the farmers don't have to worry about it anymore.

03:32It is a game changer.

03:34It is really the help that our beloved farmers will feel.

03:38Php 3 billion was allocated to the program.

03:42At present, 50,000 farmers are the target beneficiaries of the D.B.P.

03:48The program was first launched in Gimba Nueva Ecija

03:52and expanded to Cordillera, Pangasinan, and other places in the Philippines.

03:58The D.B.P. told us that only one Interventions Monitoring Card is prohibited

04:03and that the agency will conduct field monitoring.

04:07That is to ensure that the program is being used correctly.

04:12Kalaysal Pardiliya for Pambansang TV in the new Philippines.
