WIA Episode 4 | BENGUET-BAGUIO: Exploring the Food Crisis

[@aljamirtv3877]

Sa tuwing narinig ko mga sinasabi Ng mga farmers..tumutulo talaga luha ko..tragis din kasing gobyernong to Di makontrol Yung mga lintik na negosyanti..parang sobrang pagpahalaga nila sa mga negosyanti..kudos sa inyo mga pilipinong magsasaka..

[@jamielabagawi4422]

Kudos to you, Ms. Gretchen! I am a Baguio local, my parents are both Cordillerans, and I truly appreciate this effort from you and your team. You have truly highlighted and showcased the beauty of Benguet's places and the hearts of the people. May God bless and keep you a thousandfold. 💖

[@steshka1015]

Super super ganda Ng story and very relevant. I like din structure Ng storytelling or presentation ng story. It's a mix of adventure, immersion, fact reporting and charity / livelihood training. Very nakakabusog ng utak at puso Feeling ko pwede ka maging PH President someday.

[@csg_01]

As an agriculture student, your stories have been really helping me understand more the crises that our local farmers and local communities are experiencing nowadays and empathize w them. Hoping that the gov't would immensely support & prioritize our farmers and take action (kahit parang malabo lol). Thank you for taking us through the places you visit and providing us w such informative contents. Take care always, ms. gretch! 💙

[@Cheska-c5e]

I agree Farmers are so Important in any Country kc galing sa kanila ang food na nabibili natin . D2 sa Abroad nga Priority ang Farmers its so sad na sa Pinas di sila binibigyan ng Pansin dami kapwa natin ang di sila ina Apriciate dapat mga Produkto Pilipinas ang binibenta natin lalo na yung mga gulay . Root Crops and rice kay yung galing Import mas mahal din para sa mga Pilipino pag sa atin aside fresh at natutuöungan natin ang sariling Farmers nakakatulong din yan sa Economiya natin..

[@jovialdway]

I am a daughter of a farmer. This vlog of yours madam is very informative. Thank you for featuring this❤

[@bryankelly9797]

Im glad I stumbled upon this genuine, pure,very informative channel.This is what people or students should be watching,it beats hours of sitting in school😁Thank you for featuring my home,Im a proud Igorot born and raised as a farmer,but due to this unstable system,a lot of us are forced to leave and practice our farming skills abroad. Thank you for checking on our situation,more than anything you gave, is you became our voice. Youre my next Kara David, sorry to name her Ms Gretchen Ho but I see you as her,very sweet and real. May the Lord bless you and I wish you never stop touching peoples lives like u just did of mine.

[@evaristods8747]

I'm a senior citizen watching this. I was hesitant at first subscribing. I've watched her being paired with an actor before both hosting a program on Ateneo. She's a natural beauty and very intelligent. I'm glad she has her own vlog now and a very interesting and entertaining one and she's really good. Keep it up Girl. Ur up for greater things in this world.

[@marianitauy8857]

God bless you ❤and be safe always .. Ms Gretchen keep it up d good work a blessing to the filipinos😊

[@victorianoalambra5325]

I was teary eyed while watching your video because of the mixed information from start to finish. Hoping/praying for better lives of our countrymen. Thank you Ms Gretchen. God bless.

[@johnlerieinabudhabi]

Now mas clearer sa mga tao ang dahilan ng kung gaano kahirap maging farmer sana tangkilikin ang sariling atin. Ang ganda ng segment nato kudos Ms. @GretchenHo.

[@lawrencepastrano711]

Our country needs contents like this. Makes me love my country more and understand what is going around. Plus hearing Bullet Dumas in the outro. Wow! Thank you miss Gretchen! You earned one subscriber here. Bless you and your team! 🇵🇭⛰️🌾

[@teamAmarketing]

My hometown. Thank you ma'am for featuring our place. Sa farming kami binuhay ng papa ko sobrang hirap ng Buhay pero bumawi nmn sa magandang lahi. Mabuhay Cordillera.

[@merlinaroyeras4581]

Ang gaganda talaga ng content ng WIA. Ang laking tulong sa Tublay weavers. Sana umabot ng 1M subscribers ka Gretchen. May God Bless You.

[@karenalvarado1940]

My dad recommend that I watch this episode of yours. The mark up is too much with all the middlemen these crops go through. We need to end this and help all our farmers. I hope you'll tackle more local and national issues that will be an eye opener to us. And for the viewers, liking is not enough, let's do our part as consumers.

[@lazygardeneasylife2774]

Ang pinaka mainam na maitutulong po natin sa mga farmers is to choose kadiwa stores hnd lang para makatulong kundi mapromote at mapalawig pa Ang kadiwa stores Nationwide 😁 simple but workable 😊

[@jhomin2691]

Lahat po ng tao gusto sa kadiwa dahil sobrang bagsak presyo. Ang problema po sobrang bihira ng mga kadiwa, meron man kadiwa sobrang layo naman sa mga lugar ng mga tao na gusto rin sana maka mura. Kelangan po talaga ng tulong ng gobyerno.

[@IndividualExistence]

salamat sa pagbisita sa farmers namin dito sa Benguet, galing at walang ka arte arte sa galaw at pananalita mo Mam Gtetchen

[@Ayovlog]

Very interesting and importmative contents. God bless you.

[@luksy6493]

Joshua 1:8, Exodus 20, Deuteronomy 28, John 3:16, John 14:15, Isaiah 44:9-20 etc etc. God bless the Philippines...God bless you Gretch!

[@nylagapin4608]

The right person who can lead this problem is the one who knows the ins and outs of vegetable/fruit farming and trading. If this is solved, both farmers and consumers will benefit. Programming, upgrading and regulations about middlemen is good.

[@nrtinio5808]

Farming is like a game of luck. Farmers hope for good weather condition to harvest quality farm produce and hope that the traders/ middlemen can give them fair price commensurate to the amount of money, time and volume of hard work they invest on their products. I hope the government gives them 100% support because, they are the ones who bring food on our tables, they are ones who constantly maintain our nation's food security. Improving and modernizing farming, providing them high-tech food storage facilities to keep their products fresh from farm to market and monitoring trading process to ensure that the farmers gets a fair financial return of their investment. If we do these, there will be no reason for us to import agricultural products from other countries. Palakasin po natin ang ating lokal na magsasaka at sektor ng agrikultura.

[@alice_agogo]

500 hectares ng kamag-anak namin n̶i̶n̶a̶k̶a̶w̶ kinuha ng gobyerno more than 20 years ago due to CARP. Dahil diyan naging hate ko mga Aquino. Kaya wala akong paki kung magdusa mga magsasaka sa Pilipinas. Sana mamatay silang lahat sa gutom.

[@angelbernal9904]

Coorect ka dyan...

[@brownnomad20malone41]

Yes mam, at sana our government can remove ung middlemen. Para 100% ung kita ng farmers will be theirs. Hopefully someday we can see our farmers get the 100% support from the national govt.

[@KusineroNovoRecords]

Absolutely right. Proudly Anak ng magsasaka from Nueva Ecija. Love here from Kuwait.

[@angelbernal9904]

[@SparkNoLight]

Yes, very informative. Plus the charsima of ms. Gretch are way better from others. But I like Kara David also.

[@riderkiko9852]

I already watched this in OnePH but I still love watching it again here in YT and see the beauty of nature in Benguet. Thanks Ms Gretchen Ho for sharing this here in YT. Woman in Action is the best.

[@olgasembrana7483]

Ms Gretchen very down to earth person .. walang ka Arte Arte .. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Ver0_Cat]

My roots come from the North (Ilocos). Although I never lived there, I grew up eating a LOT of fresh vegetables. Sure, we love our meats, but we always have one vegetable dish in every meal. As kids, we'd whine and say, "Oh no, we're eating grass and flowers AGAIN lol! Hindi talaga nawawala ang gulay. Seeing how vegetables grow so well in the north, I feel like I'd totally love living in Benguet. The cool weather plus the fresh vegetables. I just hope one day Filipino farmers will get the support from the govt. I just subscribed. I think this'll be a new fave yt channel after Erwan's Featr.

[@albertmesa1561]

I love watching Gretchen how humble and kind....God bless you always ❤️🙏

[@normalorenzo5757]

In the 70’s, mountains in Baguio city was lined up with thousands of Pine trees, vegetables and berries. At present I can see through videos that gone was the sight and scent of Pine trees but what you see are houses that sprouts like mushrooms. I will include this city in my wish list in my forthcoming visit to the Philippines. MN🇺🇸

[@nochannel6589]

I agree. Where have all the pine trees have gone especially the pine trees near Camp John Hay. I heard they were cut down. Those trees have lived for decades and a person rose into power to have them cut down.

[@joeydugay8972]

Ang saya panuodin ang vedeos mo mis gretchen

[@reinemina8651]

I’m glad of the benefits of social media nowadays (basta huwag sa maling paraan gamitin 😆). Kasi ngayon at least napapahalagahan na ang mga hardwork ng mga farmers at napatunayan na they deserve respect. I came from a generation of farmers, noong high school ako kapag start ng school year magpapakilala ka at kung anong trabaho ng parents mo. I was often laughed at because my parents are farmers. Tga bundok at insignificant ang tingin ng iba sa trabaho ng lahi namin. Pero may isa akong teacher na nagtanggol sa akin, he scolded my classmate who commented bad and taught the whole class a lesson: “without the farmers, any other profession will not prosper (will eventually die down).” I think during pandemic nakita na natin na “pagkain” lang ang kailangan natin para mabuhay. Sobrang tama yung teacher na yun. Para sa isang simpleng buhay, all you need to live is food. All you need is a farmer. Lahat ng naibibigay/nagagawa ng kahit na anong propesyon ay hindi magtatagumpay kung gutom at wala ng makain. 📝 Sa ibang mga bansa kapag sinabing farmer ka mayaman at respetado ka. Respetado kasi naa-appreciate nila yung value mo as a person who works hard to put food on their tables. Mayaman kasi protected sila ng government against “traders and cartels”. The government supports them in many ways that they can sell directly to consumers, their produce are from “farm to table” talaga.

[@pepitogarcia6632]

Good Morning po diyan po sa Benguet, maganda pong mag-alaga ng Salmon Farming, dahil kagaya sa Norway Europe, isakto poo sa benguet dahil cool place po, sa mga malalamig dito po sa Pilipinas po, suggestion ko lang po, thanks, and take care po,

Thanks for this coverage! I grew up in Baguio and never had the opportunity and time to understand this intricate dance of vegetable trading. This is truly great investigative journalism. Entertaining, too! Please keep up the good work! Look forward to more of these.

[@tampsup2719]

Sa japan nga hindi mahirap ang pricing dahil standard sila...kayong mga middleman ang yumayaman kesa mismong nagtanim kaya dapat maputol na yang sistemang yan. Dapat dumiretso din po kayo maam idol sa Kapangan malapit lang din diyan sa Tublay para makita niyo din munisipyo at mga tourist spots dun saka mga ibat-ibang gulayan din gaya ng pipino, bell papper, beans etc.

Mabuhay! Thank you for this very informative report! Hope to visit the area. More power!

[@jeannysia9655]

These food crisis & farmers issues should get attentions of Secretary of Agriculture & BBM. Why import vegetables from Vietnam & China, instead of helping out Benguet farmers? Herewith govt solutions: 1) Govt must facilitate the transport of products to manila & other cities. 2) Create a cooperative & support for farmers in terms of farming technology, financial assistance & possible subsidy not to lose. Govt. must study Chaebol, Kereitsu & USA marketing & subsidy in agriculture. Feasibility study should be given to UP post graduates programs case study or private think tanks. I will link these issues to the Phil. govt. and related dept. to resolve the issues. We salute the farmers.

[@itsafrank]

I didn’t mind watching it the whole 55mins. Love it.

[@dai-ut5zl]

sana bilhin ng gobyerno mga gulay tapos ebenta sa mga cities,baba presyo ng gulay tapos may dagdag trabaho, coordination lang sa mga farmer kung sino magharvest,elista sa da date ng planting at harvesting

[@emelitaambata7691]

Good job Ms Gretchen Ho...although dko napuntahan yan lahat esp the weaving industry...napahanga mo ako...ang ganda ng content mo...sana mabigyang attention ng ating government ang mga farmers na maliit lang ang kinikita sa kabila ng kanilang pagod ...salute Ms..Gretchen Ho👏👏👏👏Silang, Cavite here....

[@ms.wearisome8087]

thank you for this video! we are from Benguet and we also have a farm. sobrang hirap maslalo na kung may Bagyo. 3-4 hours ang byahe going to La trinidad. kung may bagyo nasstranded pa dahil sa mga falling debris kaya nababasa ang mga gulay. pag punta pa sa trading bumababa ang kalidad ng mga gulay dahil sa nabasa na ng ulan eh nastranded pa sa daan.hopefully the government will do something about the problems. sana mag tayo ng dry or cold storage (not sure for the term)

[@ms.wearisome8087]

isa pang problema ay ang mga trader. murang kinukuha sa mga farmers pero mahal kung ibebenta. kaya dapat may government to government help.

[@ms.wearisome8087]

also. paiba iba po talaga ang presyo sa trading. kumbaga sa umaga 36, sa hapon either bababa or tataas depende sa supply

[@jeannysia9655]

The farmers issue are supply chains. Phil. Govt. must intervene and subsidize the farmers to stay afloat to continue their livelihoods. The Farmers in USA are being subsidized by the govt. to remain competitive & profitable. It's called corporate welfare. Gretchen should refers these supply chains issues & underlying problems to BBM, as well as Dept. of Agriculture. Support the farmers, the backbones of the Phil. economy.

[@lottebeligan3016]
