    Excerpt
    Despite being surrounded by seawater, the Department of Agriculture (DA) said the Philippines has been importing 93 percent of its salt supply. “[It is] an unfortunate circumstance to a country with 36,000 kilometers of shoreline,” the agriculture department said in a statement. Agriculture Undersecretary Domingo Panganiban recently said the country is experiencing a shortage of salt as he revealed that the department is now working closely with government agencies to enhance the development of the local salt industry and enable the sector to be self-sufficient.
