04The Spread: Best vs Cheapest Yard
The distance between the best- and lowest-paying mandi is the day's real opportunity for Lemon.
A spread of ₹4,000 (23.5%) across reporting yards means a seller near a higher-paying mandi can realise meaningfully more — provided cartage and grading don't eat the difference.
05How Today Compares to the 5-Day Trend
Over the last 5 days, Lemon prices at Basti APMC ranged between ₹3,000 and ₹12,125, with the average around ₹9,927. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
