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 ₹15,250 (225.9%) 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 two weeks, Coconut prices at Hiriyur APMC ranged between ₹15,000 and ₹22,000, with the average around ₹18,000. A rate sitting near the top of this range points to firm demand, while a move toward the lower band suggests easing pressure.
