AgriPriceBD: A Daily Market Price Dataset of Agricultural Commodities of Bangladesh

AgriPriceBD is the first publicly available daily multi-commodity retail price dataset for Bangladesh, covering five key agricultural commodities - garlic, chickpea, green chilli, cucumber, and sweet pumpkin - over a five-year period, yielding 1,000+ daily observations per commodity.

Prices were extracted from daily government market monitoring PDF reports, using an LLM-assisted digitisation pipeline with bilingual English and Bangla structured prompts. Each record contains wholesale and retail minimum and maximum prices in Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) per kilogram.

Columns:
- date (YYYY-MM-DD)
- product name
- measurement (kg)
- wholesale price minimum
- wholesale price maximum
- retail price minimum
- retail price maximum.

Known anomalies: Four green chilli records on 22, 23, 24, and 29 January 2024 contain zero-valued prices due to government portal outages (0.22% of the series). These are retained as-is for transparency.
