Marcos: Gov’t ready to aid farmers
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. assured farmers that the government is prepared to provide assistance in case of typhoons or the El Niño phenomenon.
During a forum in Nueva Ecija, Marcos stated that the Department of Agriculture (DA) would help farmers replant if possible, or provide support if it's too late.
He also mentioned that all crops are insured as a form of protection against calamities.
Recalling the significant damage caused by the previous El Niño, Marcos emphasized that the government is better prepared now due to established systems from the DA and the National Food Authority down to the local level.
