Advice for Farmers

1. In mandis with heavy arrivals and weak prices (like Badnawar and Azadpur), it may be wise to hold stock for now.
2. In markets with limited arrivals but strong demand (such as Haryana mandis), farmers can benefit from immediate sales.
3. With festive demand likely to rise in the coming weeks, onion prices may improve—farmers should consider partial sales now and store the rest.
4. For longer storage, farmers are advised to use cold storage facilities to maintain quality and take advantage of higher prices in the near future.
