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.

Over the last 30 days, Tomato prices at Kailaras APMC ranged between ₹350 and ₹3,000, with the average around ₹1,867. Comparing today against this recent band helps separate a genuine trend from a short-lived, selective-buying spike.
