Problems: Simultaneous planting leads to oversupply, which crashes prices and strengthens buyers’ bargaining power., Farmers rely on a few buyers at trading posts, so those buyers can dictate very low farmgate prices., A multi-layered supply chain means middlemen and transport costs capture much of the value, leaving farmers with thin earnings., Farmers invest large capital without crop insurance, pushing many toward losses and debt when markets or weather turn., Planting and harvest timing are a gamble; late planting often results in lower prices., Solutions: Coordinate crop planning and crop zoning at the municipal or provincial level to stagger harvests and curb oversupply., Establish a government-enforced floor price for key vegetables to protect incomes during oversupply., Strengthen direct marketing links (e.g., cooperatives, online selling, supermarkets, hospitals) to reduce dependence on exploitative middlemen., Expand safety nets and financing: provide comprehensive crop insurance and easier access to low-interest credit., Upgrade logistics and post-harvest systems: build better farm-to-market roads and cold storage/processing so produce can reach markets quickly or be preserved until prices recover.,
