Measurements of electrical resistivity, ac magnetic susceptibility and magnetization of PrAg were carried under pressures up to 17 kbar, in a temperature range from 2.3 K to 300 K and in fields up to 20 kOe. At ambient pressure, the Néel point TN and the Curie point Tc are 10.6 K and 7.8 K, respectively. When pressure p increases, TN is almost constant, while Tc increases largely, coincides with TN around 7 kbar and is almost constant at pressure up to critical pressure pc\simeq10 kbar, where structural transition TM appears. At pc, TN and Tc values become 13 K and 7 K, respectively. With further increasing p, TM increases and Tc decreases drastically while TN slightly decreases. The spontaneous magnetization increases almost linearly with increasing p, reaches a maximum value near pc and then decreases very rapidly above pc.
