According to a report by the Philippine Business Mirror on June 9th, the Ministry of Agriculture stated that the number of active cases of African swine fever (ASF) in the Philippines continued to decline, and only 19 cases of ASF were observed in 19 Barangay provinces across the country
.
Morales, director of the Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI) of the Ministry of Agriculture , said that in the next two to three years, the country's ASF epidemic will be properly handled .

According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture, since August 2019, ASF has affected 2,787 Barangay in 523 cities in 49 provinces in 12 regions, culled 475,000 pigs nationwide, and affected 65,000 farmers
.
ASF has destroyed the pig industry in the Philippines, leading to a shortage of pork, and retail prices have soared to 400 pesos/kg
.

The government is taking two measures.
One is to increase the minimum entry for pork imports by 200,000 tons, and the other is to reduce pork tariffs to 10% to increase domestic supply and lower retail prices
.

The latest price monitoring report of the Ministry of Agriculture shows that as of June 8, the retail price of pork in Metro Manila was 300-390 pesos/kg
