Madhya Pradesh: Cotton arrivals decline at Barwani Mandi, prices improve: Auctions run from morning to afternoon; maximum price reached ₹7,000
Cotton arrivals at the Barwani Agricultural Market on Sunday were low, but prices improved. Auctions continued from morning to afternoon.
Cotton sown during the summer and rainy season has now begun to emerge from the fields. Despite some damage from continuous rain, tin sheds remained lined with bullock carts and vehicles. Hundreds of bundles stored on the ground at the rear of the market were also auctioned.
Traders determined prices based on the quality of the cotton. Farmers described most prices as satisfactory. Low-quality cotton fetched prices of up to ₹3,500 per quintal.
Maximum price ₹7,000
According to the market administration, the total arrival was 761 quintals, comprising 315 bundles, 22 vehicles, and 8 bullock carts. The maximum price recorded in the auction was ₹7,000, the minimum ₹3,500, and the model price was ₹5,400 per quintal.
The market complex was bustling with farmers and traders from morning until noon. First, the bundles lined up were auctioned, followed by the cotton loaded on vehicles and bullock carts. This process slowed the auction process somewhat.
