Excerpt
The Department of Agriculture-Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (DA-BFAR) said the Philippines is now among the world’s leading producers of tuna. “With unwavering determination, we have elevated the Philippines to the ranks of the world’s leading tuna producers. Last year’s impressive production of over 475,000 metric tons speaks to our diligence and the richness of our marine biodiversity — a remarkable achievement for a country of our size,” DA Undersecretary for Fisheries Drusila Esther Bayate said in her message at the closing of the 23nd National Tuna Congress and Trade Exhibit at the SM City General Santos Trade Halls in General Santos City on Friday, Sept. 1.
