New Delhi, 26 October (NNS): Stocks of the old crop have declined considerably in the mandis, while arrivals of the new crop have also remained limited. As a result, adequate supplies are not available in the market. Following a decline of Rs 300 today, Badami coriander prices fell to Rs 17600/17800 per quintal. Meanwhile, farmers and large traders in producing states are gradually releasing their old stocks in anticipation of better prices, preventing any sudden increase in supply pressure in the mandis. In some markets across Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, arrivals remain lower than buying demand, supporting prices. Consumption of packaged spices is increasing in the country, while enquiries for Indian coriander and coriander powder exports from West Asia, Europe and Africa remain strong. Further gains are expected in the coming days.
