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 ₹4,400 (78.6%) 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 30-Day Trend
Over the last 30 days, Rice prices at Mumbai APMC ranged between ₹3,000 and ₹13,000, with the average around ₹8,567. A rate sitting near the top of this range points to firm demand, while a move toward the lower band suggests easing pressure.
