THE Department of Agriculture (DA) on Tuesday vowed to go after and confiscate the remaining smuggled vegetables from China that are currently flooding the local market.

'We will confiscate all smuggled vegetables. That's the direction,' Agriculture Secretary William Dar told the media in a virtual briefing. The DA has received reports that cheap imported carrots and other vegetables were proliferating the markets nationwide.
