ఉల్లి ధరల్ని తగ్గించేందుకు ఏం చేయాలి?||How onion Prices can be contained?
The problem begins with seasonality. Indians consume onions every day — in curries, in salads, as accompaniments. Meaning, there is year-round demand.
Supply, however, is seasonal. Onions come from primarily from three states — Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka — who, between them, provide two-thirds of India’s onion crop. Most of Maharashtra, the largest supplier of onions, follows the rabi, or winter, cycle for onions, where the harvests begin to hit the markets in April. Madhya Pradesh’s crop follows the same pattern. But wily Madhya Pradesh farmers are beginning to shift their crop to the kharif season where rainfall permits, to take advantage of higher prices in October and November.
