Lansones Rescue

HEART-BREAKING BREAK EVEN LANZONES. We’re getting a lot of mentions/tags on this post, the sorry situation of LANZONES in Mindanao. The farmers there are no longer bothering to harvest their trees because the farm gate price has plummeted to P10 per kilo. This is even the Duco variety. How much do we pay here in Metro Manila for the most expensive and sweetest kind? An arm and your big toe. For P10 per kilo, there would be nothing left for the farmer after paying labor, boxes, and fuel. It’s a break-even, heartbreaking proposition? Let the Lansones hang where they do, sorry to see them fall to the ground but what can we do?

LANZONES RESCUE BUY. @everyone, this is what we can do:
make Lanzones our main Rescue Buy™ effort this week. We are now looking at the problem of Lanzones in Mindanao, we have people on the ground. We are going to identify a farmer that we can help, and bring his produce to the airport — to YOU. We shall pay him P50 per kilo, farmgate. The price to you is P100, nandun na ang mga costs that we mentioned above plus air freight, payment gateway charges, spoilage and the cost to dispatch. It will be around P110. (The average price of Duco Lanzones in Metro Manila is around P200.)

Transparency: We will try to get DUCO LANZONES, the premium variety, but in keeping with the spirit of Rescue Buy we will not choose a farmer to help because of it. The object of this effort is the helping, and if his Lanzones happens to be Duco, that will only be the bonus.

LANZONES — P350 for 3 kilos
