Farmers holding garlic stock in fields or warehouses should closely track today’s mandi price report. Just ahead of Holi (04 March 2026), garlic markets across India are witnessing sharp price fluctuations. In some mandis, premium-quality garlic touched ₹14,000 per quintal, while markets with heavy arrivals saw prices fall as low as ₹2,000 per quintal.
With the festive season approaching, garlic demand is expected to remain firm over the next few days. Farmers who have well-dried, good-quality garlic may benefit from phased selling instead of releasing their entire stock at once.
Today’s price trend clearly shows that low-arrival mandis are trading firm, while markets receiving large volumes remain under pressure. Selecting the right mandi at the right time will be crucial for earning better returns this season.
