The Amihan National Federation of Peasant Women, Rural Women Advocates (RUWA) and all-Filipina independent publisher Gantala Press launched “Lutong Gipit: Mga Recipe sa Panahon ng Krisis” featuring recipes from peasant women and mothers from Cavite, Laguna, Iloilo, and Rizal.
“The farmers’ families are very hungry and until now Duterte has no concrete solution to solve it. The majority of farmers receive little to no assistance. Most of them only eat once or twice a day or sometimes nothing at all,” Amihan National Chairpersons Zenaida Soriano said.
Amihan said the book highlighted the plight of poor peasant families and the struggle for a three-day meal day due to loss of livelihood and increasing prices of basic commodities.
