Statistical Handbook on Prices of

FERTILIZERS and PESTICIDES

FOREWORD

This is the second issue of the Statistical Handbook on Prices of Fertilizers and Pesticides. The monitoring of
these prices started in 1993. It is intended to provide information to policy makers to support the farmers’ productivity
programs of the Department of Agriculture. The preparation of this periodic publication is lodged at the Price and
Trade Statistics Section (PTSS) of Agricultural Marketing Statistics Analysis Division (AMSAD) of the Bureau of
Agricultural Statistics (BAS).

This handbook contains dealer’s price information on four (4) grades of fertilizers and selected brands of
pesticides classified as fungicide, herbicide, insecticide and molluscicide. Over the years, the list of pesticides
covered had grown to its current number of 225. But, this publication includes only the 31 most commonly reported
brand names. The complete listing of these inputs is found in Appendix 13.

Seasonal indices were computed to give additional insights on the behaviour of the prices of these inputs. While
this Handbook is being published only every five years, the monthly and annual price updates are available at the
BAS website and at PTSS.

As in other publications, we invite the readers/data users to send us their feedback and suggestions for the
improvement of this product.

FERTILIZERS

Chemical fertilizers are used to double or triple yields of food grains and other crops. Modern agriculture is heavily
dependent on the use of such inputs. The application of chemical fertilizers usually coincides with the start of the rainy
season, but in some areas where rainfall is uniformly distributed throughout the year, fertilizer usage is higher during the
planting months.

This section presents the trend in the dealers’ prices of four (4) common grades of fertilizers – Ammophos (16-20-0),
Ammosul (21-0-0), Complete (14-14-14) and Urea (45-0-0) for the period 2000-2004. The seasonal indices will roughly
indicate the months when fertilizer prices are in the lowest or highest levels implying the planting months.

HIGHLIGHTS
At the national level, annual average prices of fertilizers were generally increasing. Relatively higher price increases
were noted for 2003 - 2004 where prices soared more than 20% for each fertilizer grade.

Urea was the most expensive among the fertilizers. This was priced at P728.22 per 50 kilograms in 2004, an
increase of 26.13% over the previous year.

Ammosul was the cheapest fertilizer grade but posted the highest price increase in 2004-2003 at 34.88%.

AMMOPHOS

The seasonal index for Ammophos indicates that its monthly prices were within the normal level from January to
May, tend to peak on June and below normal level during fourth quarter.

Ammophos was generally more expensive in 2004 compared to previous years. Price grew substantially in
Mindanao areas, the highest increase in Region 11 at 41.08% and the lowest in ARMM at 35.82%. Negative growths in
prices were registered in Regions 4B, 7, 12 and CARAGA with percent changes ranging from 0.43% to 3.57% between
years 2002 and 2001.

PESTICIDES

Pesticides are chemicals or mixtures of chemicals used for the prevention, elimination, or control of unwanted
insects, plants and animals. From these uses, there evolved four (4) types of pesticides - insecticides (against insects),
herbicides (against weeds), fungicides (against fungal diseases) and molluscicides (against molluscs).

There are more than 225 kinds of pesticides reported from the BAS Operations Centers. The more common in
terms of regular price reporting are listed below.

A. Fungicide – Hinosan

B. Herbicide

2. Hedonal 6. Rogue

HIGHLIGHTS

Fungicide

Hinosan posted increasing prices from 2000 to 2002. From P761.20 per 1000 ml in 2000, its price went up to
P882.84 per 1000 ml in 2002. However, it declined to P859.59 per 1000 ml in 2003 and decreased further in 2004.

Herbicides

Prices of herbicides in 2004 were generally higher than in the previous period except for Advance and Shell 24D
which posted negative growth rates of 0.44% and 0.09%, respectively. The most expensive Herbicide was Sofit, priced at
P729.48 per 1000 ml in 2004; increments in prices were likewise relatively low at 1.50% compared to previous year. On
the other hand, Shell 24D had the cheapest price in 2004 sold at P296.78 per 1000 ml on the average.

Insecticides

Among the insecticides, Decis 2.5 indicated biggest gain at 28.15% as price moved from P996.16 per 1000 ml in
2003 to P1,276.54 per 1000 ml in 2004. Malathion was priced lowest at only P284.81 per 1000 ml. Fluctuations in prices
were noted for Attack, that is from P498.11 in 2002, it dropped to P452.55 in 2004. Nurelle exhibited an uptrend, since
2001.

Molluscicide

Bayluscide price was highest in 2002 at P1,175.05 per 1000 ml. It slid to P1,103.38 in 2003 and declined further
in 2004 at P1,041.83 per 1000 ml.
