Farmers witnessed major fluctuations in tomato market prices across key mandis on 22 May 2026. According to today’s mandi update, heavy arrivals in Delhi markets kept prices under pressure, while several mandis in Maharashtra recorded strong rates due to lower supply and firm demand.

As per the latest market report, Delhi’s Azadpur Mandi registered the highest tomato arrivals at nearly 443.8 tonnes. Due to oversupply, the maximum price in the market remained limited to ₹1,600 per quintal.

On the other hand, Maharashtra’s Nagpur mandi grabbed attention as tomato prices surged to ₹5,000 per quintal, supported by lower arrivals and better-quality produce.

Market experts say that unstable weather, rising transportation costs, and fluctuating demand are causing sharp price movements across markets. Mandis with higher supply are witnessing weaker prices, while low-arrival markets are offering better returns to farmers.

Market Analysis: Arrivals and Price Trends:

  • A comparison of arrivals and prices clearly shows that Delhi’s Azadpur Mandi received the highest arrivals at 443.8 tonnes. Due to excessive supply, prices remained limited between ₹400 and ₹1,600 per quintal.
  • Maharashtra’s Junnar mandi also recorded heavy arrivals of 386.5 tonnes, but the maximum price still reached ₹2,750 per quintal, which was significantly better than Delhi markets.
  • The highest price was recorded in Nagpur mandi, where arrivals were only 25 tonnes, yet prices touched ₹5,000 per quintal. This indicates that low-arrival markets with strong demand are currently offering better returns to farmers.
