So far, the problem has been the distribution of the salt harvest, which does not have a fixed price each harvest period. This is because there is no policy that specifically regulates the selling prices of salt farmers and entrepreneurs. Meanwhile, during the harvest period, farmers determine selling prices usually based on the weather and the success of the harvest, while entrepreneurs determine prices by looking at the market. In this case, there will be an imbalance and a point of instability in the salt distribution mechanism. The current salt pricing system is based on unstructured market practices and a lack of regulations that strictly regulate the pricing process. Salt farmers are often forced to rely on middlemen or large entrepreneurs who monopolize access to the salt market.
