04The Spread: Best vs Cheapest Yard
The distance between the best- and lowest-paying mandi is the day's real opportunity for Onion.
A spread of ₹2,600 (40.6%) 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 4-Day Trend
Over the last 4 days, Onion prices at Bansi APMC ranged between ₹700 and ₹1,800, with the average around ₹1,388. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
