A spread of ₹3,500 (17.9%) 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, Pomegranate prices at SMY Palampur APMC ranged between ₹5,000 and ₹24,000, with the average around ₹14,465.
