The speaker of the House of Representatives has directed the House Committee on Agriculture and Food to study the option of recommending to the President the calibrated importation of onion and garlic.
Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez made a statement on Sunday as he warned unscrupulous traders and hoarders of onion and garlic suspected of being behind the continued high prices of these agricultural products in the market.
“As discussed and instructed by Speaker Martin Romualdez, the committee on agriculture and food will prioritize an inquiry and investigation on unscrupulous traders and hoarders of onion and garlic in aid of legislation,” Enverga told the BusinessMirror via Viber. “We received information that these people are hoarding onion, and more recently even garlic, to create an artificial scarcity in supply and induce price increases.”
