Why it matters

The minimum farmgate prices set by Antique are intended to protect local hog raisers from depressed market conditions. This action occurs as Iloilo province continues to manage the ongoing threat of African Swine Fever. Retail pork prices in the market currently range from P230 to P350 per kilogram.
