Benguet Vegetables- Farmer Price

[glenn_duke]

Im planning to expand my busines to include highland veggies. Recently got a PR for tons of assorted veggies. I need a real wholesaler, prices that are farm gate or near farm gate prices. I contacted people I know but I find their prices more of 2nd stage middle man.

Any lakay here familiar with the trading post in La Trinidad know a stall or trader that sell bulk in farm gate prices?

Im on my way to La Trinidad now to meet my contact, I need some sort of second opinion.

"where is the middleman when you need him?"

not long ago tomatoes in batangas were destroyed due to oversupply

we always hear people say baket di nalang dalhin ung mga produkto sa lugar na nangangailanan

transportation cost

oo mura nga ung produkto itself at the source, pero pag nalaman mo magkano ang transportation at magkano mo maibebenta sa bagsakan, di na worth it

kaya tinatapon nalang

taon-taon na lang every december to january nagakakaroon damaged by typhoon/frost/oversupply. So sana matancha na yan ng mag-gugulay.

So ang maging benefit nyan eh "pataba sa lupa." = maganda pa din for future harvest.

i think the glut was because every farmer there decided to plant the same crop at the same time, and harvesting them also at the same time.
just in time to meet the bad weather.

wala siguro association diyan nag nagdedecide gaano kadami ang itanim

kanya kanya yan syempre lahat gusto kumita

so pag harvest lahat sila pare-pareho madami ang harvest

pababaan tuloy ng presyo para maibenta

doc may nagsuggest doon sa napanuod ko na to innovate daw mga farmers and venture in jam making or preserved fruits veggies.. Like pumpkin brocolli spread or cauliflower chips. Oh di ba sosy for export yan.

Kasi yung mga malapit maoveripe eh sa jam making daw ginagamit.

Huminto kasi sa strawberry jam eh.

that is what the authority person said, when interviewed over the radio.

alas, it is very easy to talk and/or to write down on paper.
but who has the foresight and the wherewithal to make it all come to fruition?
