Onion trader Akhil Gupta in Azadpur Mandi says onions are already cheap this time, which is making farmers suffer. However, after Holi, after March 15, new onions of the Rabi crop will also arrive, which are of very good quality and do not spoil quickly. In such a situation, a new onion will appear on the market, due to its arrival, the stock of red onions that are now being sold will be quickly removed, therefore the onion price will decrease.
The one that comes after Holi is the garba bulb that is stored. Garba onion is the best, it doesn’t spoil quickly. Because of this, it takes several months. It is used from March to September-October. In the meantime, an onion gets caught in the rain, but it spoils quickly.
Agents Akhil and Rajendra say that the farmers are not getting the right price for onions. Customers benefit from high onion supplies and low prices, but farmers suffer losses. The country’s onion production is high, but the freeze on exports to Bangladesh etc. from February 15 has also had an impact. Onion consumption is lower in the country. At the same time, the production of the upcoming new onion is also expected. In such a situation, onions will remain cheap for months to come.
