THE Department of Agriculture (DA) on Thursday said it would roll out nationwide two healthier and cheaper rice varieties called "Sulit" and "Nutri" as part of the government's effort to reduce the cost of the staple.
During the Bagong Pilipinas Ngayon briefing, Agriculture Assistant Secretary Arnel de Mesa said that the Sulit Rice would be priced from P35 to P36 per kilogram (kg), while the Nutri Rice would be sold for P37 to P38 per kg.
