随着主要稻米产区的收割季接近尾声，稻谷价格出现走弱迹象，菲律宾农业部正加大市场干预力度。目前全国约77%的稻谷已完成收割。国家粮食署正提高收购价以应对价格下跌。
菲律宾马尼拉消息——菲律宾农业部报告称，在Nueva Ecija、Pampanga、Isabela和Cagayan的部分地区，稻谷收购价格跌至每公斤16至17比索。此次价格下跌仅限于局部地区，Palawan等地的农场交货价仍维持在每公斤23至24比索，表明这仅是局部的价格压力，而非全国性的崩盘。
国家粮食署已将干稻谷的收购价格提高至最高每公斤30比索，并计划在受影响地区加强采购力度。该机构还推出了一项直接采购订单系统，方便农民在收割前达成交易。为解决卡车短缺等物流瓶颈问题，国家粮食署计划在今年增购150辆卡车。
菲律宾农业部长Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr.表示，大米进口仍有必要，但必须谨慎管理，以避免进一步压低本地大米价格。早期的进口管控措施确保了约70%的收成能以理想的价格售出。农业部目前正在考虑对6月至8月的每月大米进口量实施限制。
