MUMBAI – Oilseed prices were steady in key spot markets of the country, traders said. Demand for soybean and groundnut was subdued, they said. Demand for soymeal for animal feed is poor, which is why soybean prices have been rangebound for some time, traders added.
MUSTARD seed prices in Jaipur, Rajasthan, were steady at INR 7,300-INR 7,325 per 100 kilograms, according to Marudhar Trading Agency. In the past few days, mustard seed prices have risen by about INR 300 per 100 kg as the arrivals that are coming in are of better quality, with less moisture content, local trader Mahesh Sameriya said. Arrivals of mustard seed across the country were at 250,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg), up 25,000 bags from the previous day, according to GGN Research.
In Kota, also in Rajasthan, mustard prices were steady at INR 6,800 per 100 kg, Sameriya said. Arrivals were at 5,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg), down 1,000 bags from the previous day, he said. Increased concerns about supply could support prices, he said. Part of the kharif mustard crop in the state was damaged by the heavy rainfall at the end of October, he said.
SOYBEAN prices at Ratlam in Madhya Pradesh were steady at INR 2,200-INR 4,750 per 100 kg, said Narendra Porwal, a local trader. Arrivals fell to 7,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg) from 8,000 bags the previous day, he added.
In Kota, too, soybean prices were steady at INR 4,601 per 100 kg. Arrivals were same as the previous day at 40,000 bags, Sameriya said. Soybean prices were steady due to reduced demand for soymeal, a byproduct of the extraction of oil from soybean, traders said.
Prices of GROUNDNUT in Ratlam were steady at INR 3,100-INR 5,250 per 100 kg, as demand did not pick up, Porwal said. Arrivals were at 26,000 bags (1 bag = 40 kg), the same as the previous day, he said.
