During the survey periods the average prices of these products maintained a level 70% to 130% higher than those fixed by the Government.Price fluctuations in relation to season, size and quality of the products were discussed. The prices were affected by season and size of the products but not by quality in terms of appearance and smell of the non-cooked products.
