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 ₹1,000 (10.5%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.
0530-Day Price Context — Trend & Strength
Over the last 30 days, Carrot prices at Patiala APMC ranged between ₹700 and ₹1,400, with the average around ₹918.
