Philippine Farmers Struggle Amid Global Turmoil
Cabbage farmers in the Philippines face plummeting prices and soaring fuel costs as the impact of international conflicts ripples through local agriculture.
Philippine farmers, especially those growing cabbage, are feeling the pinch of the ongoing global economic upheaval. As fuel prices surge and demand for their produce dwindles, these hard-working agricultural workers are being forced to harvest their crops at a significant loss.
The current situation is a stark contrast to the thriving farming communities that have long been the backbone of the Philippine economy. The war in Iran and its ripple effects have disrupted the delicate balance of the country's agricultural sector, leaving farmers struggling to make ends meet.
