    According to economist Emmanuel Leyco, P64 computed by the goverment is not enough to sustain the daily food requierments of Filipinos.

    "Ang panawagan ay magkaroon ng tama at mas makahulugan na survey kung ano ang pangangailangan ng mga mamamayan. Difinitely po ang 64 pesos ay hindi sapat" he said in an interview on GMA Super Radyo DZBB aired in 24 uras weekend on sunday.

    Mas mahalaga na makita natin, halimbawa sa mga lugar po Gaano ba kataas yung presyo kasi iba-iba ang inflation , iba- iba ang presyo kada lugar at iba iba din ang po ang sinisweldo ng ating mga mangagawa sa ibat ibang lugar" Leyco said.

Still growing population affects food Security

-
 A growing population means more mouths to feed. The expanding global population is getting wealthier, and richer people tend to eat more and demand food that is resource intensive to produce, particularly meat and dairy. It has been estimated that we need to produce more food in the next 35 years than we have ever produced in human history, given the projected increases in world population, and on the basis that rising incomes will continue to change . Growth in Population Food security has been significantly impacted by population increase. A nation's resources are strained more when its population grows, which makes it harder to produce and distribute food. Population expansion can also result in more poverty and inequality within communities, as well as increasing demand on land and water resources. Governments must fund family planning initiatives and contraception to solve this problem and lessen the strain on available funding
