Understanding Melon prices in Benue State
Is Melon getting more expensive?
Over the last 90 days the median price has fallen from ₦1,200 to ₦1,100 per cup — a change of 8.3%. Prices easing usually reflects harvest supply reaching the markets, and that window does not always last.
Which unit is Melon sold in?
Markets report Melon in cup, mudu, painter. We never average across units — a price per cup and a price per mudu are different figures, and treating them as one number produces something meaningless. Compare like with like, and check the unit before assuming one market is cheaper than another.
All figures are medians of prices recorded in Nigerian markets, published in Naira.
