Mandi prices of onion fall 50% on fresh arrivals
Financial Express Hyderabad|December 23, 2024
WITH THE ARRIVAL of fresh kharif crops, average mandi prices of onions at Lasalgaon in Nashik, Maharashtra—the country's key onion trading hub—halved to ₹2,000 per quintal on Sunday from ₹4,000 per quintal a month ago.

Traders attribute the price drop to the high moisture content in kharif onions, which makes them unsuitable for storage, resulting in increased supply in markets. Prices are expected to decline further unless the government removes the 20% export duty on onions to boost shipments.
