Hundreds of cabbages were just piled up on the side of the road at Kilometer 21 in Tublay, Benguet after some farmers were disappointed with its very low sales in the market.
In the report of Balitanghali this Tuesday, it can be seen that the cabbage is piled up on the road because the farmers are said to be too low in the wholesale price at the Benguet AgriPinoy Trading Center.
It is said that people passing by can take even a few pieces of cabbage from the pile.
Meanwhile, a truckload of radishes was supposed to be returned to the town of Atok because no one wanted to buy them, but they were just given away for free.
The price per kilo of cabbage ranges from P3 to P15, depending on the class, based on the last monitoring of the Benguet AgriPinoy Trading Center.
The wholesale price of radish ranges from P5 to P18.
The mayor of La Trinidad said that they have not monitored any oversupply of vegetables in the province. It is said that the buyers in Manila and other places are just low.
