Atty. Esteban Salonga, son of Senator Salonga, shares his journey from contract chicken farming to advocating for a radical shift in Philippine agricultural policy. He critiques the government's focus on export-oriented agriculture and large-scale industries, arguing that this approach neglects the fundamental issue of food security for its own population. Salonga champions a return to sustainable subsistence farming, emphasizing local food production and supporting small-scale farmers and fishermen over global trade interests. He traces the historical roots of this imbalance, from the Green Revolution to the rise of plantation agriculture, and proposes a realignment of priorities to feed the Filipino people first.
