Fish prices likely to go down in coming weeks - BFAR

Fish prices are likely to go down in the coming weeks following the lifting of the closed fishing season for round scad (galungggong) in Northern Palawan, according to the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR). BFAR said it expects that this will result in a boost in supply for round scad in the local market. “‘Pag maraming klase ng isda na mapagpipilian sa palengke, marami ang supply, it would actually boil down to reduced price,” said BFAR chief public information officer Nazzer Briguera.
