The Department of Agriculture (DA) remains optimistic it will hit its target of expanding local farm and fisheries output by one to two percent this year amid extreme weather conditions.

Nonetheless, Tiu Laurel noted that hitting their production targets would not be "too easy" given the challenges brought about by climatic conditions at the onset of the year.
He cited the presence of El Niño in the first half as one of the major production challenges this year and the expected La Niña phenomenon this second half.
