📢 Message to Stakeholders

👨‍🌾 For Farmers:

• Mango growers: More supply may soften prices. Focus on quality grading and direct marketing (retail chains or B2B) for better returns.

• Leafy vegetable cultivators: Heat may impact freshness—ensure early morning harvest and quick logistics to maintain value.

• Papaya, cucumber, melon farmers: Growing demand offers good pricing—ensure consistent harvests to capitalize on season.

🧑‍💼 For Traders:

• Summer fruits like muskmelon and papaya are showing an upward trend—stock smartly and build relations with bulk buyers (hotels, juice vendors).

• Mango varieties are entering peak season—plan procurement in phases as bulk arrivals may create short-term dips.

• Monitor green chilli and mushroom markets closely—they remain volatile.

🧑‍🎓 For Researchers & Students:

• This price data reflects seasonal elasticity and market behavior in north India’s largest mandi. Useful for modeling price forecasts, trend analysis, and policy studies.

• Note how climate and supply volumes influence perishable commodities.

👪 For Consumers:

• Expect stable or slightly falling prices on essentials like potatoes, onions, bananas, and apples.

• Summer fruits like papaya and melons will be fresher and more affordable—this is the best time to consume them.

• Stock up on leafy greens earlier in the week to avoid heat-damaged produce.
