[Title] => Gov’t reimposes high tariff rates on hog meat
[Summary] => The government has decided to reimpose the tariff rates from 10 percent to 30 percent for in-quota and 40 percent out-quota on swine meat to provide assistance to the local livestock and poultry sectors facing economic difficulties.
The most pressing reason to revert to the original rates of import duty for swine meat is to stabilize the prices of poultry and livestock products while balancing the impact of such move to both consumers and producers, according to Executive Order 299, which will take effect on May 1.

[Title] => Angara: Revive shoe, fiber industries
[Summary] => Sen. Edgardo Angara filed two separate bills seeking the revival of the leather/footwear and fiber industries which he said have fallen prey to globalization and cheap imports.
Angara said reviving the two key industries would make them competitive in the global market, create niche export products and create at least one million new jobs for Filipinos.
He said the leather/footwear and fiber industries have been popularized in the Philippines by Marikina shoes and leather goods and jusi, abaca and piña products.

[Title] => RP presses talks with Australia on fruits
[Summary] => The Department of Agriculture (DA) expects to start bilateral talks with the Australian government this month on the ticklish issue of allowing the entry of Philippine bananas and pineapples in the Australian market before it elevates the matter to the World Trade Organization (WTO).
As this developed, the Philippine government already turned down Australia’s request to postpone the bilateral talks. The Australians asked for the talks to be deferred during the CAIRNS group meeting in Bolivia last week.

[Title] => Pag-oopisina ni GMA sa DA publicity lang - Bayan Muna
[Summary] => Publicity lang ang ginagawang pag-oopisina ni Pangulong Arroyo sa tanggapan ng Department of Agriculture at hindi para sa kapakanan ng mga magsasaka.
Ayon kay Bayan Muna Party List Rep. Crispin Beltran, hindi mareresolba ang problema ng mga magsasaka sa ginawang paglipat ng opisina ng Pangulo dahil hindi naman nito binago ang kanyang agenda hinggil sa agrikultura.
