The Right Way to Sell Produce — For Farmers
The old mandi rule — 'don't sell everything at once'. Despite today's ₹4,700, sell in 2-3 instalments. This also lets you benefit from any further rally ahead.
For Buyers — Market Conditions
From a procurement view, today's trade is healthy. A narrow gap between the average (₹4,460) and the max (₹4,700) points to a well-supplied environment. Plan large buys around weather and arrivals at other mandis.
