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 ₹1,200 (40.0%) 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 2-Week Trend
Over the last two weeks, Paddy(Common) prices at Kovur APMC ranged between ₹2,021 and ₹3,333, with the average around ₹2,515. A rate sitting near the top of this range points to firm demand, while a move toward the lower band suggests easing pressure.
