Terms of arrivals, Baran (Rajasthan) received the highest inflow at 100 tonnes, followed by Dahod (Gujarat) with 86.7 tonnes, keeping prices under pressure. In contrast, low-arrival mandis such as Atru, Udaipur, and Dehgam witnessed strong price momentum.

Advice for Farmers:

• Farmers with high-quality wheat can get better prices by selling in Atru and Udaipur (Rajasthan) and Dehgam or Botad (Gujarat).
• High-arrival mandis like Baran and Dahod, prices are currently under pressure; farmers with storage facilities may benefit by holding the crop.
• Since prices are well above MSP, small farmers should consider phased selling to reduce risk and lock in profits.

Bottom line: Wheat prices are showing strong potential where arrivals are low. Selling decisions should now be based more on mandi-wise trends rather than MSP alone.
