    Excerpt
    The Philippines aims to export more farm and fishery products to Canada with a target of doubling the value of such shipments over the medium term, the Department of Agriculture (DA) said. In a virtual call with new Canadian Ambassador to the Philippines Peter MacArthur on Aug. 7, Agriculture Secretary William D. Dar said that an agreement has been reached to expand areas of agricultural cooperation and partnership in potato and dairy production, food logistics and markets, and agroforestry, among others. According to the DA, the Philippines exported around $98.8 million worth of farm and fishery products to Canada in 2019. Coconut products led all exports at $23.8 million, followed by pineapple, dried guava, mango, and mangosteen amounting to $10.3 million, and fish products such as tuna and bangus worth $9.4 million.
