28-Mar-2026 05:38 PM
New Delhi. Heavy arrivals of mustard are being seen in mandis across major producing states including Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, and Gujarat. However, strong buying by oil millers as well as traders and stockists has kept the market sentiment firm, leading to continued strength in prices. Although mustard production is expected to increase significantly this year compared to last year, this has not created any negative psychological impact on the market so far.
