Advice for Farmers:

1. The October 12 mandi figures are important for farmers planning to sell okra. While Pune (Manjari) recorded a maximum price of ₹8,000 per quintal, Madhubani reported just ₹1,300. However, farmers should not choose a market based solely on the highest quoted rate.

3. Before selling your crop, compare today’s mandi prices in nearby markets. Calculate the likely selling price after accounting for transportation expenses and check the rate available for your produce before making a final decision.
