Excerpt
Fifteen farmers and fisherfolk organizations released a joint statement Wednesday, Nov. 30, 2022, expressing their opposition to the extension of Executive Order (EO) 171, saying the reduced import tariff did not benefit consumers. The group instead wants the Marcos administration to protect local agriculture, through various programs and interventions to ensure food security.
