Tridge summary

The Office of the Basic Education Commission 10 has reported an increase in the harvested area of the western region's pineapple plant due to the 2023 rainfall pattern caused by the El Niño phenomenon. Despite the abnormal weather conditions, the Meteorological Department predicts that the phenomenon will weaken and become neutral from April to June 2024, followed by a La Niña state from July to September 2024, which is expected to boost pineapple tree health and yield. As a result, farmers are taking better care of the plants, and the price of Batavia pineapples, which has been rising since 2022 due to drought and scarce supply, continues to inspire farmers to increase production. Despite the challenges, pineapple production for sale to factories and the fresh fruit market remains inadequate, prompting calls for production control measures and the promotion of Contract Farming to ensure both sufficient supply and stable prices for pineapple farmers.
