Чили: Ла-Калерада картошканын дүң баалары төмөндөдү, бирок улуттук деңгээлде орточо көрсөткүч бойдон калууда
Wholesale potato prices at the Femacal market in La Calera, in Chile’s Valparaíso region, fell by 7.5% in a week to CLP 18,500 per 25 kg sack on 3 November 2026, according to price platform AgroPrice, as reported by Argenpapa.
The figure works out at CLP 740 per kilogram. AgroPrice says it is a volume-weighted average drawn from the official market bulletin for the most widely traded pack size. A 7.5% weekly decline implies that the price a week earlier was close to CLP 20,000 per sack.
A wide spread across Chilean markets
La Calera sits in the middle of the range when compared with other wholesale markets quoted by AgroPrice for 25 kg sacks. Talca was the cheapest at CLP 15,000 (CLP 600/kg), followed by Puerto Montt at CLP 17,000, Chillán at CLP 17,500 and Lo Valledor in Santiago at CLP 18,000.

Above La Calera, Vega Central Mapocho in Santiago was quoted at CLP 20,500, while Vega Monumental in Concepción was the most expensive at CLP 22,000 (CLP 880/kg).
That leaves La Calera about 23% above Talca and roughly 16% below Concepción. The gap between the cheapest and most expensive of the seven markets is CLP 7,000 per sack, or about 47% above the lowest quote.
What the numbers do and do not show
The quotation reflects a single market on a single date, so it should be read as a snapshot rather than a national trend. The regional differences, however, are a reminder of how far wholesale potato prices in Chile can diverge between the central, southern and metropolitan hubs, even within the same week.
