On October 10, 2024, the market saw stable prices for red meat, with the Ministry of Agriculture offering fresh local meat at reasonable prices, ranging from 250 to 280 pounds per kilo depending on the type, compared to market prices ranging from 350 to 400 pounds per kilo. The availability of a large supply of meat from the Armed Forces and other ministries has made it more accessible and affordable for the public, leading to a preference for purchasing from these outlets rather than butcher shops.
