NEW DELHI – Prices of mustard fell today in Jaipur, Rajasthan, as estimates show the production may rise in the ongoing crop year 2022-23 (Jul-Jun), while those of soybean fell in Indore, Madhya Pradesh due to an increase in arrivals, traders said.
* MUSTARD seed was sold at 6,425-6,450 rupees per 100 kg, down 25 rupees from Friday. Arrivals were pegged at 190,000 bags (1 bag = 84 kg), up 5,000 bags from the previous trading day, said Rupesh Parekh, a local trader.
