Rubber co-op to start selling motorcycle tires next month

Excerpt
FARMER-OWNED rubber tire brand Pilipinas Agila Tires will launch on the market in April with an initial product offering of motorcycle tires, Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel F. Piñol said on Tuesday.
“The manufacturing and marketing of the tires for working motorcycles commonly known as ‘habal-habal’ as well as tricycles marks a small step forward in the program of the Department of Agriculture to elevate the farmer from the status of a raw material producer to the processor and merchandiser of finished products with added value,” Mr. Piñol said in a social media post.
