A dated national reference
Two dated readings are shown for the same row: TOMATO (HIGHLAND) national average RM8.75/kg on 29 September 2026 [source], and RM8.59/kg on 1 October 2026 [source]. Both are national guide averages across wholesale and public markets. They are not quotes for lowland, cherry, size-specific or carton tomatoes.
The two-point difference is RM8.59 [source] − RM8.75 [source] = −0.16 (RM/kg). That negative figure is a two-point reading of the same class, not an expected price trend; do not carry it forward as a forecast.
The cited daily guide lists only TOMATO (HIGHLAND). Figures shown here are dated 29 September and 1 October 2026. [source]
Compare tomato figures by source and class
These records are not one “wholesale tomato price”: they represent different classes and market stages. Keep the stated date, unit and source attached, then request an actual offer for your class and quantity.
| Source and date | Recorded figure | What it means to a buyer |
|---|---|---|
| FAMA, highland tomato, 29 Sep 2026 | RM8.75/kg national average [source] | General wholesale/public-market guide, not FAMA's purchase price or a seller's carton price |
| FAMA, highland tomato, 1 Oct 2026 | RM8.59/kg national average [source] | A second date for the same class, not a forecast |
| KPDN, two retail premises, 1 Oct 2026 | RM5.29/kg and RM8.50/kg [source] [source] | Consumer display observations at named premises; not wholesale quotes or proof of stock for you |
| Cameron shop post, 2 Oct 2026 | RM3/kg for Cameron tomato at the shop; wholesale enquiries invited [source] | Dated seller statement at the retail end; not a verified wholesale price |
The price differences do not by themselves show that one offer is cheaper: product class, source, date and selling basis differ. The cited FAMA daily guide lists TOMATO (HIGHLAND); do not use that row for a class it does not list. [source]
Compare pack, loose and carton offers
| Format | What to record | Check before comparing |
|---|---|---|
| Retail pack | Displayed pack price and net weight | Product class, origin and date observed |
| Loose per kg | Price per kg | Grade, size and origin stated by seller |
| Carton | Price and actual net weight, not just outer carton size | Class/size, grade, quote validity and pickup/delivery terms |
There are no verified local pack or carton offers cited here. If you find two formats, record the displayed price, date and time, product name, class or origin and net weight. Do not infer that a particular pack or carton is cheap, expensive or available based on the national guide.
Calculate RM/kg from the offer
Use the actual offer, not an assumed example: divide its stated price by the stated net weight in kilograms to get the offer’s RM/kg. For a carton, confirm whether the weight is net product or gross carton weight first. Add delivery and other required charges to the amount paid, and compare only the same class, grade, date and delivery basis.
- Divide the offer price by its net weight in kilograms.
- Match the product class, origin and quote date before comparing two offers.
- Keep the FAMA highland value separate as national context. [source]
- If you track waste, weigh and record it yourself; do not assume a spoilage rate.
For a real carton purchase, ask the seller to state net weight, class or size, grade, price, quote-validity date and pickup or delivery terms. FAMA’s guide is not a proxy for a local carton price.
Record a carton offer before buying
Keep each offer separate. Record tomato class/origin, grade or size, format and net weight, quantity, quote date and validity, pickup/delivery point, separately stated charges and payment terms. Outer-carton gross weight does not replace net product weight; without net weight, the per-kg comparison is incomplete. Compare delivered totals only when specification and delivery basis match.
Betulkex is assessing demand for tomato buying. The WhatsApp below collects class, format/net weight, quantity, area and date; this is an initial enquiry, not a tomato price, order or supply promise. A seller must confirm price, stock and delivery terms for the specific request.
Frequently asked questions
What is the wholesale tomato price now?
The latest FAMA reading shown here is RM8.59/kg for TOMATO (HIGHLAND) on 1 October 2026, a national average across wholesale and public markets—not a current carton price. [source] No local carton quote is verified. Ask for class, grade, net weight, quote date and delivery terms.
Why is a retail tomato cheaper than the guide?
I do not have evidence explaining the difference in your example. First check that date, class, origin, unit and net weight match. The FAMA value is a national guide for highland tomato, not a retail price or ceiling. [source]
How do I compare a retail pack with a wholesale carton?
Divide each actual offer price by its net weight in kilograms. Compare RM/kg only when class and quote date also match. Keep the national guide as separate context, not as a quote. If you track discarded produce, weigh and record it using your own stated method.
Which tomato class does the guide list?
The cited guide has an entry for TOMATO (HIGHLAND). [source] It does not verify a lowland, cherry or size-specific carton offer. Compare those using a dated source for the matching product.
