MUMBAI – Mustard seed prices rose in Jaipur, Rajasthan, due to firm demand and steady in Kota, traders said. Soybean and mustard were steady in key markets as demand was limited at higher prices, they said.
MUSTARD seed prices in Jaipur rose by INR 50 to INR 8,050-INR 8,075 per 100 kg on firm demand for domestic oilseeds amid lower arrivals, traders at the Marudhar Trading Agency said. Arrivals across the country were at 700,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg), down 50,000 bags from the previous day, they said.
Crushers were keen on buying domestic oilseeds instead of relying on imported crude edible oils, traders said.
