Krisis sa bigas o paano mag-alay ng tula sa mga magsasaka
Nitong mga nakaraang buwan, halos dumapa nang husto ang presyo ng palay sa pamilihan sanhi ng pagdagsa ng mga inangkat na bigas mula sa ibang bansa.

At kung sakaling may pila sa terminal, sana nama’y maarawan o maulanan din sila sa paghihintay sa susunod na traysikel o dyip.
