Understanding Ripe Plantain prices in Abia State
Is Ripe Plantain getting more expensive?
Over the last 90 days the median price has fallen from ₦4,500 to ₦3,800 per 5 6 pieces — a change of 15.6%. Prices easing usually reflects harvest supply reaching the markets, and that window does not always last.
Which unit is Ripe Plantain sold in?
Markets report Ripe Plantain in 5 6 pieces, bunch (16 25 pieces).

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.
