The moment of Eid al-Adha 2026, prices in Bandung City have started to rise. Goat prices are recorded to have increased by around IDR 500,000 to IDR 1 million per head, while sacrificial cow prices have increased by IDR 1 million to IDR 2 million compared to last year.
The head of the Bandung City Food Security and Agriculture Office stated that the price increase is triggered by various factors, ranging from inflation, high feed costs, to livestock distribution costs that have also increased in recent months.
“For goats, it’s around IDR 500,000 to IDR 1 million compared to last year per head. For cows, about IDR 1-2 million, there is indeed a change from last year,” he said on Thursday (May 28, 2026).
Despite the price increase, the Bandung City Food Security and Agriculture Office ensures that stock is still safe. However, the number of animals entering Bandung City this year is expected to decrease slightly compared to the previous year.
“The inspection team has inspected 11,519 animals. The number is still below last year’s achievement which reached around 18,000 animals before the holiday,” he said.
According to him, traders are now more careful in bringing in sacrificial animals. Besides considering the continuously rising prices, traders also face the burden of feed costs and the risk of animal diseases during the distribution process.
On the other hand, the economic condition of the community also affects the sacrificial animal market this year. The office assesses a tendency for a decline in people’s purchasing power although the need for sacrificial animals remains ahead of the holiday.
“What is certain is that availability is safe. But it seems there is a slight decrease in terms of the number of animals sold and maybe there is also an influence from people’s purchasing power,” he said.
