Description This report is the 15th in the series of reports on Marketing Costs Structure Studies by the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (BAS). This particular study covered the provinces of Pangasinan, Bulacan, Capiz and Iloilo. It was aimed at providing information on the costs of marketing milkfish.

The results of the study can hopefully address the need for information on the flow of milkfish in the country, specifically, in the leading supply and demand areas. As this also contains information on marketing functions/services and the corresponding costs incurred by various marketing participants in moving milkfish from the producers to the consumers, this could serve as guide for fisherfolk and policy makers in increasing the efficiency of the milkfish marketing system.
