Farmers, today’s tomato market is truly unpredictable. In one mandi, prices are as low as ₹500, while in another, the same crop is being sold for ₹3,000–₹3,300 per quintal. This kind of variation makes it difficult to decide whether to sell or wait.
According to today’s mandi update (21 April 2026), tomatoes have now become more than just a crop—they are a game of strategy.
Markets with heavy arrivals are seeing immediate price drops, forcing farmers to sell at lower rates. Meanwhile, mandis with limited supply and strong demand are offering premium prices above ₹3,000 per quintal.

If all three are in your favor, tomatoes can bring excellent profits. Otherwise, selling in overcrowded markets may lead to lower returns.
