By late 2022, the price of red and white onions in the Philippines increased significantly,[1] ₱ 700smuggle the commodity into the country.[2] [3] [4]
Background [ edit ]
Along with garlic , onion is a staple in Filipino cuisine , being used as a base in many dishes.[5] rainy months of September and December. Meanwhile, its harvest season begins as early as December and ends in June.[6] [7] [8]
The price of red onion in 2021 ranged between ₱90 and ₱120 .[6]
The Department of Agriculture 's failure to adequately project supply and demand for onions resulted to a delay in imports, leading to a shortage.[9]
Response [ edit ]
