Check market prices

Market Info shows indicative daily prices for crops across PNG markets. Use it to decide where to sell and when.

See today's prices

1. From the Dashboard, tap Market Info.
2. The screen opens to today's prices at your nearest market (from your profile).
3. Scroll to see prices by crop.

Filter by crop

1. Tap the search or filter field.
2. Type the crop — for example kaukau, taro, tomato.
3. The list shows that crop across the markets that reported a price today.

Filter by market

1. Tap Market at the top of the list.
2. Choose a market — Gordons, Mt Hagen, Lae, and so on.
3. The list now shows every crop reported from that market.

Compare two markets

To decide where to sell, look at the same crop at more than one market:

1. Open Market Info and pick your crop.
2. Note the price at your nearest market.
3. Switch the market filter to a second market (for example a city market).
4. Note the difference.
5. Subtract your transport and time cost from the difference to see if the trip is worth it.

Read a price trend

For some crop+market combinations, FARMIS shows how prices have moved over weeks and months.

1. Open a crop's market entry.
2. Tap the chart or Trend tab.
3. The line shows the price over time. A clear up-trend often means it's worth holding off harvest for a bit; a down-trend means sell sooner.

Important caveats

• Prices are indicative, not contracts. Always confirm with the buyer before you transport produce.
• Prices come from sample reporting and can lag a day in remote markets.
• Volume matters — a price quoted for one bag can change if you arrive with twenty.
