Understanding Ripe Plantain prices in Kano State
Is Ripe Plantain getting more expensive?
Over the last 90 days the median price has fallen from ₦4,600 to ₦4,100 per bunch (16 25 pieces) — a change of 10.9%. 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 bunch (16 25 pieces), 5 6 pieces. We never average across units — a price per bunch (16 25 pieces) and a price per 5 6 pieces 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.
