By: Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered an increase in the lower-tariff pork import quota to 204,210 metric tons on Friday, up from 54,210 metric tons, reported Reuters.
Raising the quota was aimed at shoring up supplies and reducing prices, with domestic supplies hit by the spread of African Swine Fever.
