In a statement, the DA said some 100,000 kilos of yellow onions declared as bread pastries were discovered on Nov. 29 as the government continues to look into the perceived shortage of onions in the country.Nevertheless, the DA said supply of the onions appeared sufficient.
The DA however has yet to decide on whether or not to import red and white onions, pending the recommendation of the Bureau of Plant Industry. “Bago pumasok ng Pilipinas, lahat ng importer kailangan kumuha ng phytosanitary permit at saka importation permit. ‘Pag wala, automatic smuggled na po iyon.”This developed as farmers urged the government to use local red onions first before importing white onions
“Ito ay para makatulong sa local farmers. Kung mag-import nang mag-import, sayang ang pino-produce ng local farmers,” he added.
