Farmers, onion prices showed a mixed trend across major wholesale markets on 06 June 2026. According to today's mandi price update, while large markets in Rajasthan witnessed massive arrivals that kept prices under pressure, premium-quality and first-grade onions fetched impressive prices ranging from ₹2,000 to ₹2,500 per quintal.
The latest market report indicates that onion prices are currently influenced not only by arrivals but also by quality and grading. Markets such as Alwar and Jaipur received the highest volumes of onions, resulting in moderate prices for ordinary-quality produce.
Meanwhile, limited arrivals and strong demand in several Bihar markets helped farmers secure higher returns. In many mandis, regular-quality onions traded between ₹500 and ₹1,200 per quintal, whereas clean, dry, and properly graded onions commanded significantly better prices.
Let's take a closer look at which markets recorded the highest onion prices, where heavy arrivals impacted rates, and what selling strategies may help farmers maximize their profits.
