        "summary": "In Banyumas, Central Java, sacrificial animal prices have risen modestly by about Rp5,000 per kilogram, but consumer purchasing power has weakened, leading to around a 5% drop in transactions ahead of Eid al-Adha. Officials say the dip reflects ongoing economic adjustment, but farmers and traders still have opportunities to boost sales, with continued market monitoring planned across Banyumas; staples remain largely stable and stock levels are sufficient.",
        "content": "<p>Markets in Banyumas Regency, Central Java, reported a decline in\ntransactions for sacrificial animals ahead of Eid al-Adha, with a\nmarginal rise in prices of around Rp5,000 per kilogram. Deputy Regent\nDwi Asih Lintarti noted that while the price increase is modest,\npurchasing power among residents has weakened, with purchases of\nsacrificial animals down by about 5 percent compared with the previous\nperiod. She described this as a consequence of ongoing economic\nadjustment or efficiency measures.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, farmers and traders still have opportunities to boost\nsales ahead of the peak of Eid al-Adha. \u201cIn the final week this is\nexpected to be utilised to the maximum by farmers to optimise sales of\nsacrificial stock,\u201d she said. She added that monitoring will continue at\nseveral other livestock markets in Banyumas, including Sokaraja Market\nat the weekend, to ensure distribution runs smoothly and all stock is\nabsorbed by the market.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to monitoring livestock prices, the delegation also\nchecked staple food prices at Pasar Manis Purwokerto. The results showed\nthat prices for several commodities such as chilies, vegetables, rice,\nand meat were stable and at normal levels. \u201cOverall, staple prices\nremain stable and safe,\u201d Lintarti said. She noted that only red onions\nhad a slight price increase, considered reasonable due to rising demand\nahead of the festival. \u201cThe overall stock of staples is safe and\nsufficient to meet community needs until Eid al-Adha,\u201d she added.\n(H-2)<\/p>\n<p>The Temanggung Regency Livestock Health Inspection Team routinely\nmonitors animal health at markets.<\/p>\n<p>Some residents feel more confident buying directly from farms or\nsmallholders, as prices are lower and quality is considered\nsuperior.<\/p>\n<p>Tasikmalaya City Government recorded a 50% drop in sacrificial stock\ndue to weakened purchasing power, although animal health has been\nconfirmed as safe from PMK.<\/p>\n<p>Trading activity for sacrificial animals at Jonggol Livestock Market,\nBogor Regency, West Java.<\/p>\n<p>DSP Farm cattle and sheep, owned by a young farmer from Bandung, has\nagain been trusted to supply sacrificial animals for the President\u2019s\nBanmas programme in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>As Eid Al-Adha 1447 Hijri approaches, the trend in selecting\nsacrificial animals in Yogyakarta has shifted.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, it is estimated that around 700 head of cattle and 700\ngoats will be traded at Pasar Hewan Siyono in the lead-up to Eid\nal-Adha.<\/p>\n<p>Prices for Bali cattle used for sacrifice in Bengkulu City, Bengkulu\nProvince, rose significantly to Rp17 million to Rp19 million per\nhead.<\/p>\n<p>A complete guide to choosing healthy sacrificial animals in\nJabodetabek for Eid al-Adha 2026, with updated price comparisons for\ncows and goats.<\/p>\n<p>Read tips for planning Eid al-Adha 2026 finances from Dompet Dhuafa.\nFlexible price options are available for domestic and international\ndistribution.<\/p>",
