The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) said on Saturday that subjecting three fish varieties under a suggested retail price (SRP) is meant to stabilize and monitor price movements. Gongona said that setting up suggested retail price on three fish varieties—milkfish or bangus, tilapia, and galunggong—will allow the government to monitor price movements as prices were observed to go up unusually. On Monday, the Department of Agriculture implemented the SRP on select agricultural products, including regular-milled rice with an SRP of P39 per kilo.
