00:00Meanwhile, some will choose to lower the price of fish before expecting to love it again because of the expected demand before Easter.

00:10But the effect of avoiding the pork meat of Cuaresma is already felt.

00:15Bernadette Reyes was on the spot.

00:20Fish are usually loved during the approaching Easter because of those who avoid meat.

00:26But it's not yet felt in the markets and it's still cheap nowadays.

00:30That's why Esma was able to buy what she can pack at home.

00:34I will buy it earlier so I can save more.

00:38Now, the cheapest is galunggong. I don't know what's next. Maybe next week, it might go up.

00:43In the latex market in Quezon City, the kilo of galunggong is P140.

00:48It's cheaper in the latest monitoring of the Agri Department, which is P280 to P350 per kilo.

00:54If the fish caught in the fish port is low, the price will also go down.

00:58It's still approaching, but there are more fresh fish now.

01:01Fish are also cheaper in the Marikina Public Market.

01:04Last time, it was P380 to P360. Now, it's just P240.

01:10It means that the catch has gone down.

01:13Last time, there was no catch.

01:16It was made during the big months, when it's cold.

01:21Observation of fish prices is just for now, and it will go up in the next few days.

01:27That's the trend.

01:29During Holy Week, the price of seafood is sometimes 1.5 to 2 times.

01:35It's better to buy it earlier.

01:38That's what we're doing.

01:39Anticipate before Holy Week, which is when the high price will peak.

01:44The expected price of pork, which is avoided by some when it comes to Esma, has already started.

01:50P380 to P450 per kilo of pork, which used to reach P470.

01:57P320 to P420 per kilo of cassava is still available.

02:02Maybe it will go down, because it's already P5.

02:06I hope it will continue, so that more people will not have a hard time.

02:12Here in the Marikina Public Market, depending on the location,

02:15there are also those who follow the maximum SRP for pork.

02:18P350 per kilo of cassava, P380 for pork.

02:24But some are still not able to follow, like Federito, a retailer in the Litex Market.

02:28It should go down, but it's already going up.

02:31In two days, it's already P55.

02:35According to the DA, 30% of retailers in Metro Manila are able to follow the maximum SRP.
