Abstract

This study aims to analyze the price fluctuations and stability of six major horticultural commodities in Ambon City in 2025, namely red cayenne pepper, red curly pepper, tomato, water spinach, mustard greens, and spinach. The study employed a descriptive quantitative approach using daily price data from January to December 2025. Data were collected through documentation and analyzed using the mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation (CV), and Price Stability Index (PSI). The results showed that all six commodities experienced high price fluctuations, with CV values ranging from 19.44% to 25.21%. Tomatoes recorded the highest price fluctuation, with a CV of 25.21%, while mustard greens recorded the lowest at 19.44%. The PSI values ranged from 3.97 to 5.14, indicating that price stability varied from fairly stable to stable. Mustard greens recorded the highest stability, with a PSI of 5.14, whereas tomatoes recorded the lowest, at 3.97. The findings indicate that supply conditions, weather, commodity characteristics, and distribution conditions are associated with price dynamics. Strengthening distribution systems and post-harvest management is needed to support horticultural price stability and food security in Ambon City
