04The Spread: Best vs Cheapest Yard
The distance between the best- and lowest-paying mandi is the day's real opportunity for Garlic.

05How Today Compares to the 30-Day Trend
Over the last 30 days, Garlic prices at Sitmau APMC ranged between ₹500 and ₹20,110, with the average around ₹7,463. A rate sitting near the top of this range points to firm demand, while a move toward the lower band suggests easing pressure.
