SRP limits eyed on pork, onions, carrots

The Philippine Star

|

November 25, 2025

The government is set to issue recommended price ceilings for several imported pork cuts, as well as onions and carrots shipped from overseas, in a bid to temper price spikes ahead of the holiday season.

- By ALDEN MONZON

Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. announced maximum suggested retail prices for these goods at a press conference yesterday, saying the move comes after reports of excessive markups recently observed in local markets.

Under the proposal, imported liempo (pork belly) would be priced at about P370 per kilogram, while imported kasim (pork shoulder) and pigue (pork ham) would be set at around P340.

White onions and red onions both local and imported would carry a suggested price of P120 per kg.
