04The Spread: Best vs Cheapest Yard
The gap between the day's dearest and cheapest market shows how wide the buying opportunity is — and whether it's worth carting produce further out.
A spread of ₹12,500 (50.0%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.
05How Today Compares to the 30-Day Trend
Over the last 30 days, Apple prices at Sambhal APMC ranged between ₹6,000 and ₹9,800, with the average around ₹8,646. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
