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 ₹1,600 (25.0%) 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 90-Day Trend
Over the last 90 days, Onion prices at Roorkee APMC ranged between ₹2,000 and ₹4,500, with the average around ₹3,064. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
