Nationwide, prices of red and chili peppers have increased in traditional markets. Large red chilies saw the highest increase, rising 1.11% on July 12th compared to July 9th, 2021, reaching Rp36,550/kilogram (kg), a Rp400 increase.
Meanwhile, red chili peppers hold the highest price among other chili types, costing Rp70,550/kg. This represents a Rp700 or 1% increase during the same period. Green chili peppers also saw a price increase, reaching Rp47,350/kg.
Only curly red chilies experienced a price decrease of 0.53%, priced at Rp37,700/kg.
The implementation of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) underlies the chili price increase. As a result, farmers have difficulty distributing their products, tending to market chilies locally. This has reduced the supply for large-scale traders, as reported by Tempo.
Furthermore, the recent heavy rainfall is suspected to have driven up chili prices, affecting the quality of chili production.
