. This page is rebuilt when the daily price library is deployed.
How fresh the source is
Monthly, not live: the catalogue is refreshed after each month closes (catalogue last updated 10 October 2026 when checked); our copy is refreshed daily and every answer names its month
Limits
A monthly average price per kilogram for one species and one level, as published: no range and no count of sales. Species are named in Malay as in the file (a few English names are matched for convenience). Ex-vessel is the price at first sale at landing, wholesale the price between traders, retail the price in shops and markets: only ex-vessel is what fishers receive. Not every species is published every month; a species with no figure in the newest month is left out. Figures can be revised.
Rule
A figure built from records is shown only when at least 5 records sit behind it; official statistics are shown as such, with their reference period. See how we earn trust and the method.
