Hike on fish prices seen at 30% during Holy Week
By J.Lo
“We will closely monitor market if there will be unreasonable increases,” Department of Agriculture (DA) Assistant Secretary Arnel de Mesa expects retail price of fish to increase between 15 to 30 percent with expected drop in consumption of pork during Holy Week.
At press conference, De Mesa gave assurance of enough fish supply with start of Holy Week on April 14.
De Mesa noted retail price of galunggong or round scad ranged between P200 and P340 per kilo.
Based also on monitoring of DA in Metro Manila markets, retail price of milkfish ranged between P150 and P250 per kilo; tilapia, between P120 and P180 per kilo; Indian mackerel, between P240 and P400 per kilo; sardines, between P100 and P220 per kilo; squid, between P360 and P480 per kilo and yellowfin tuna, between P190 and P360 per kilo.
Compliance with P45 maximum suggested retail price (SRP) for imported rice is now at 50 percent, according to De Mesa.
He said during inspection of Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. at Mega Q-Mart in Quezon City, some retailers were even selling grains lower than P45 per kilo max SRP but some vendors still failed to comply.
Based on monitoring of DA in Metro Manila markets, retail price of imported special rice ranged between P55 and P60 per kilo; imported premium rice, between P44 and P55 per kilo; imported well-milled rice, P43 and P46 per kilo and imported regular milled rice, between P33 and P45 per kilo.
De Mesa said as of March 27, total rice imports totaled 800,000 metric tons.
At the same time, De Mesa said Tiu Laurel wants to maintain P45 per kilo max SRP so that farmgate price will not suffer with ongoing harvest.
