Department of Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel F. Piñol explains to Australian Ambassador Amanda Gorely the intention of DA to import cattle from their country, which will be included in the 2018 budget, to boost the local livestock industry. Piñol said he wanted to build municipal multiplier dairy farms in Cordillera and Bukidnon. On the other hand, Gorely said their government wanted to continue exporting wheat, shark fin and potentially, live bees to the country. (Photo by Ardy Tompong, DA-AFID)
