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 ₹1,500 (17.6%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.

Over the last 90 days, Banana prices at Mohanur(Uzhavar Sandhai ) APMC ranged between ₹4,000 and ₹8,000, with the average around ₹6,888. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
