MUMBAI – Mustard seed prices fell in Jaipur due to sluggish demand at high rates, but rose in Kota, traders said. Soybean prices rose in Kota but were steady in Ratlam and groundnut prices were steady in the key markets, they said.
MUSTARD seed prices in Jaipur fell INR 100 per 100 kilograms to INR 7,300-INR 7,325 as demand was sluggish at elevated levels, traders at Marudhar Trading Agency said. Arrivals across the country were at 950,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg), the same as the previous day.
On the other hand, mustard seed prices in Kota rose by INR 251 to INR 7,251 per 100 kg as availability of soft oils such as sunflower oil, soyoil and canola oil was low.
