02How Strong Is Today's Rate, Really

03How Other Mandis Compare Today
Here's how Goat rates stacked up across reporting markets on 16 Sep 2026. A clear leader usually anchors price expectations across nearby mandis.
| Mandi | Price (₹ / quintal) |
|---|---|
| 1 Sonamura APMC Leader | ₹6,000 |
| 2 Kulai APMC | ₹5,500 |
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 ₹500 (9.1%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.
