Farmers engaged in potato cultivation have witnessed mixed market trends on June 24, 2026, as fresh mandi data from across India revealed significant price variations. While potatoes were sold as low as ₹200–₹700 per quintal in some markets, premium-quality produce fetched much higher rates in selected mandis.
The most notable highlight of the day came from Madhubani Market Potato Price, where the maximum rate reached ₹1,800 per quintal, making it one of the highest price points in the country. On the other hand, Mumbai recorded the highest arrivals of the day with more than 1,348 tonnes of potatoes entering the market. Due to heavy supply pressure, prices in Mumbai remained in the range of ₹700–₹1,300 per quintal.
Market trends indicate that pricing is no longer driven by arrivals alone. Quality, grading, size, and freshness are now playing a crucial role in determining market rates. Markets with limited supply and stronger demand have consistently offered better returns to farmers.
