[Title] => RP mulls retaliatory action vs Australia on banana issue
[Summary] => The Philippine government could take retaliatory measures against Australia for reversing its earlier decision to lift the ban on imports of bananas from the Philippines.
"We are reviewing to what extent we should retaliate against Australia. We’ve been very patient and accommodating in asking for more trade reciprocity but obviously there is intent to again delay our bid to have our products enter the Australian market," Agriculture Secretary Luis Lorenzo Jr. said.

[Title] => Rising wheat prices to hike cost of pan de sal — Cito
[Summary] => Rising wheat prices in the world market, not the 10-fold increase in inspection fees recently imposed by the Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI), will raise pan de sal prices, Agriculture Secretary Luis ‘Cito’ Lorenzo Jr. said yesterday.
Lorenzo was reacting to the claim of the Philippine Association of Flour Millers’ (PAFMIL) that the BPI raised its inspection fees for wheat imports by 900 percent or from P2 per metric ton to P20 per metric ton (MT).

[Summary] => The American Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Amcham) recently said the adoption of agricultural biotechnology could help the country’s farming sector catch up with its Asian neighbors.
Amcham expressed its support for biotechnology even as it lauded President Arroyo’s declaration of poverty alleviation as one of the cornerstones of her government’s economic development agenda.
Amcham said the country "has vast agricultural resources that need the most appropriate policy framework in which to develop and achieve their potential."

[Title] => Lacson dares detractors to file charges in court
[Summary] => LEGAZPI CITY — Opposition senatorial candidate Panfilo Lacson challenged Arroyo administration campaign strategists yesterday to file charges against him in court instead of sullying his reputation through the media.
In a radio broadcast in Bicol, the former Philippine National Police (PNP) chief said the Arroyo administration intends to demolish him and eight other Puwersa ng Masa (PM) senatorial candidates to ensure the victory of the People Power Coalition.
"I think they are obsessed with a 13-0 win so they are doing everything to destroy us," he said.
