This prompted her to seek the help of the Department of Finance to conduct a study on the competitiveness of the country’s livestock sector to be the basis of the draft bill. The National Economic and Development Authority and Philippine Institute for Development Studies reported out their findings during the hearing.

Their proposed measure, along with Senate Bill 1297 filed by Sen. Lito Lapid, Villar said, will further boost the country’s capacity for early detection and preventive response to livestock diseases. “The government’s thrust must be that of early detection and control of the disease to prevent it from reaching the level of an outbreak and from spreading across entire regions,” she added. Moreover, Senate Bill 821 of Sen.

In the NEDA’s presentation, it emphasized that yellow corn is the main component of animal feed production and the main driver of livestock and poultry prices.
