Prices of vegetables, except for drumsticks and beans, remain stable in Yadgir
Drumsticks and beans see a significant increase in prices with both reaching ₹100 a kg
Vegetable prices in Yadgir's open market remained stable, with the exception of drumsticks and beans which saw a sharp price increase. Most other farm produces maintained their prices similar to the weekend. Tomato prices dropped significantly, falling to ₹30 per kg from ₹60 a week prior. Onion prices saw a slight increase, trading at ₹60 per kg.
Other staple vegetables like bitter gourd, cucumber, potato and lady's finger remained steady, selling in the range of ₹50 per kg to ₹60 per kg. Local vendor Mohammad Nawaz noted that onion prices fluctuate based on volume of arrivals from outside. Restaurant operator Sharana Basava pointed out a preference for local carrots over hybrid ones, with most households preferring local varieties for home-cooked meals.
The market heavily relies on arrivals from neighboring districts due to lack of local supplies. High volume of vegetable arrivals from local suppliers keeps prices stable, while frequent supply disruptions during transit drive up retail rates.
