National Food Authority(NFA)

Hi I would like to request for city level data mainly Pasig and Valenzuela (if monitored) for importation and distribution of main agricultural products such as rice, corn, and livestock. I am requesting for a time series data to determine changes in the amount of imports and distribution per year from earliest collected to present day.

Dear Joseph Litam,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Oct 16, 2019 11:49:31 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for Imports and Distribution of Agricultural Products for City Level.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the specific information  you have requested. Although our agency handles rice we do not have specific data on the volume of  rice imported and distributed in the cities as specified in your request. Likewise, with the passage of the Rice Tariffication Law, we no longer handles the importation of rice. As to the other agricultural products kindly get in touch with the Department of Agriculture.  

For further assistance you may review the FAQ section of the eFOI site: https://www.foi.gov.ph/help.
