PH plans boost in agri exports

Manila Bulletin

|

November 20, 2025

The Philippines will ramp up its efforts to enhance exports next year after the United States (US) granted exemptions to more than $1-billion worth of agricultural exports from the 19-percent reciprocal tariff, according to its top Agriculture official.

- By DEXTER BARRO II

Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel on Wednesday, Nov. 19, welcomed the new tariff exemptions by the Trump administration, saying that this has calmed the “anxiety” within the agriculture sector.

“Before, you didn’t know when the tariff would come out or what the tariff was. You couldn’t predict, you stop everything,” said Tiu Laurel in a chance interview.

“Now that the path is clear, people can plan, invest, and expand. So that’s good,” he added.
