Onion market is currently under heavy pressure, and today’s mandi prices clearly reflect the volatility. In several markets, onion market prices have dropped to as low as ₹100 per quintal, while good-quality onions are still fetching more than ₹2,000 per quintal in select mandis.
According to the latest report dated 10 May 2026, the biggest factor affecting onion prices this season is heavy arrivals (supply). Record quantities of onions have reached several major mandis across Madhya Pradesh, putting pressure on prices of normal and medium-grade produce. However, markets with lower arrivals and better-quality stock continue to offer strong prices to farmers.
This clearly indicates that quality, mandi selection, and timing are playing a crucial role in determining profits. Farmers who sell without checking the market trend may face losses, while those following the right strategy can still earn good returns even in a weak market.
Let’s take a closer look at which mandis are offering the best onion prices, where rates have fallen the most, and what strategy farmers should adopt right now.
